MikeBe 3 #1 Posted June 21, 2021 I was looking for a new seat on local craigslist for my c121. (Stickers don't match) And came home with a second wheel horse instead. Needs some restauration but i have a question. I think it is a commando 7. But has a Köhler magnum 8 engine. Where did they put the identification plate to be sure? I still have to clean it. 😂 Here some pictures. It has hard pitting but the chassis is very nice. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,914 #2 Posted June 21, 2021 The model/serial number tag should be on the left side of the tower, or under the gages on the tower. You may well have a horse that was made in Belgium, so you really can't look at list from the U.S. Here is a list of the horses that were built in Belgium. See if you can find the model number. I does look like a Commando. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,137 #3 Posted June 21, 2021 The Commando model name was used in Europe long after it ended in North America. The newest I see is 1975 but it is not well documented. Click on the picture in each link for more Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rjg854 11,578 #4 Posted June 22, 2021 Looks the same as my 68 Commando 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,137 #5 Posted June 24, 2021 The light colored rectangle below the dash panel may be the ID plate. Curious to know what is on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeBe 3 #6 Posted June 24, 2021 Tanks for the help. Its model number 1-3741 and belgium made or assembeld. 😉 I'am from belgium but think my c121 is American. Now i don't know how it's even possible that i overlooked the id plate. 😂 So it's a 1969 workhorse. I already completely disassembeld it for paint. Also it jumps out of 3 gear. But looks like it's not going good in gear. Will open up the gearbox if i get the hitch pin removed. 😅 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rjg854 11,578 #7 Posted June 24, 2021 Best of luck removing that hitch pin. That's one of the rights of passage owning a Wheel Horse They either come right out or you fight them every inch of the way 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
