Raposo 530 #1 Posted January 13, 2021 Hey guys, been lurking around for a couple months but here’s my story. I’m from south eastern mass about 15 mins from the start of the marathon. i have always wanted a wheel horse tractor. And as of Labor Day 2020 I did not own any wheel horse tractors. Mid September I picked up my first machine it was a 312-8. I then spiraled out of control and started doing a ton of research and long story short I have over 20 machines now! With a couple of cub cadets and a Sears along the way. Below are some pictures of my running and driving tractors! Raider 12 c175 with a magnum 20 in place of the series 1 312-8 315-8 charger 12 520H B80 312-8 50th anniversary that I am swapping the 4 pinion out for an 8 pinion another 312-8 cub cadet 1806 another b80 552 1277 cub cadet original the list goes on and on! Haha 5 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maxwell-8 4,277 #9 Posted January 13, 2021 toyou got yourself a big collection, and they seem to all be in mint conditions, thanks for shearing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,730 #11 Posted January 13, 2021 Excellent little collection you've started Kyle. We'll be looking forward to seeing your repairs and maintenance and usages as well. Keep an eye out for the meet and greets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 55,377 #12 Posted January 13, 2021 Kyle, you mentioned that you think you have a problem but you never mentioned what the problem was. I would suspect the problem is a lack of "round hoods" and can only be cured by acquiring some earlier model to round out your collection. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,925 #13 Posted January 13, 2021 Ya know Richard, I was thinking the same. They seem to come in waves now and again, he must be waxing up his Wheel Horse surf board for the next ride! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Achto 27,624 #14 Posted January 13, 2021 Welcome @Raposo!! It is good to admit when you have a problem. Other than your lack of round hoods, I think that I may have identified your problem. You need a bigger garage. Am I right on this?? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rjg854 11,389 #15 Posted January 13, 2021 @Raposo I don't see having 20+ tractors as a problem. The only problem you may have is not being a supporter. Once you become a supporter you'll be able to post as many of those that you might have. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
