rmaynard 15,510 #13 Posted March 6, 2022 My first Wheel Horse was a 1977 B-100 8-speed. Great tractor. When I started to restore it back in 2009, I discovered RedSquare. I was a consumer of knowledge then. I still am. You will a find an abundance of info here. Not only manuals and such, but a crap-load of guys and gals eager to help you. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky-(Admin) 21,326 #17 Posted March 6, 2022 Looks nice! So a seat and a fender pan are first on the list I assume? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One workaround is to edit the pictures on your phone before uploading to make them smaller. Most phones take pictures that are far more detailed that the forum needs so it shrinks them anyway! Edit: just saw that Bob fingers were quicker than mine! Edited March 6, 2022 by Handy Don 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CCW 1,295 #21 Posted March 6, 2022 If using Windows 10 you can right click on the filename in the folder and there is a resize option on the menu. I use this whenever I am uploading photos. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZXT 2,401 #24 Posted March 6, 2022 Welcome to the site! What all do you plan to do with your tractor? It ought to be a good mowing machine for sure. Check your local FB Marketplace or look for other members that are near you on the member map and you might be able to find a seat pan pretty easily. I might be off base here but it looks to me like a C-series pan would fit. They're far more common than B series tractors. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OldnGrumpy 38 #25 Posted March 6, 2022 Use it to move a utility trailer and my boat trailer. Gonna take the mower deck off and probably sell that. Have a zero turn for the mowing. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
