Sparky-(Admin) 21,318 #6 Posted January 20, 2022 I recall you collecting all the 67 models…. Nice stuff! You ever wonder where they ended up? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kpinnc 12,062 #7 Posted January 20, 2022 10 horse Kohlers are some smooth runners for sure! A really good one must purr like a kitten! I think the 65-67 tractors were the best lookers! With the 78-79 C-series in a close second! Absolutely excellent herd you have there! 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Made a mistake and sold them off. Wrong move. But I still like going back and looking at them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They don't "have" to be pretty, they have to "function" correctly. Some people like them looking shiny and new, while others like them rusty and sweaty. And still others like them somewhere in between. Some even like horses a different color altogether. Then even some chop them and make other things out of them. There's no right or wrong, it's yours do as you please. The only thing most of want is to Honor the tradition that is WHEEL HORSE. 3 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have seen on F/Book marketplace someone sells the covers I believe. For rips in seats, I clean them really well and use Gorilla tape. It helps to blend in but not perfect. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
