oliver2-44 9,772 #29 Posted April 30, 2021 That one looks like it would look good in its original patina. Some like to clean them and rub them down with marvel mystery oil or linseed oil. Some also sand them with very fine wet sand paper. But I’ll let the patina guys talk more about that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 48,839 #31 Posted April 30, 2021 Start out with just a bucket of hot soapy water and the garden hose. I like to peel the deck off first and gently set aside just to get at things easier. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lane Ranger 10,971 #32 Posted May 1, 2021 It is still a great feeling to see how much the old Wheel Horse tractors were loved by their owners and family members as people continue to find Wheel Horses in basically original but 60 plus years old! That is one reason to watch for these “finds” on Red Square posed so often on the website! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
