Tennessee Country Boy 0 #1 Posted March 28, 2008 First time here, was told about this last night. Need to clear up something. The 500 Special that Ben is saying he has bought is not a restored wheel horse. Ben was never told this was a restored wheel horse. It just looks good in pictures. It has scraches , dents and was painted years ago. Wrong motor, wrong pan on seat and now after looking at it last night i have discovered it does not have a tag. Just don't want people thinking I will miss repersent something. I have told Ben this also. Also Ben did not want to send a deposit so as far as I am concerned. The wheel horse is not for sale at this time to anyone. Thanks, Henry in Tennessee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,127 #2 Posted March 28, 2008 Henry, Don't worry about the 500 Special and Ben....... There's one on CRAIGSLIST in Acushnet, MA (they made a big mistake on the year though! ) which has to be a lot closer to Ben. It's listed for $300, so maybe he'll still be able to get one if he doesn't want yours. :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rollerman 290 #3 Posted March 28, 2008 Henry a big welcome to Red Square & hope to see you post here often! I don't think anyone here at the Square thinks wrong of you. Tractors deals like that can get awkward...always best to buy in person. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,343 #4 Posted March 28, 2008 Henry, I also want to . Like Stephen said, no one here thinks bad of you, and of Ben for that matter. It's hard to make deals long distance and when you only got pictures to work with, things can get misunderstood without forethought nor malice on any of the two sides. I hope you post here a lot and :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like find another 8 HP with the 8-Speed transmission . Ben :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chevelletown 37 #8 Posted March 29, 2008 Hi Henery and welcome to Red Square. I just sent you the deposit for the 551 we talked about. The pics look great and I can't wait to pick it up in May at Portland I'm very happy with the deal. I know you have several tractors for sale, be sure to post an add and some pics in the for sale section. Stephen (tickster) gave me your email address and put me in contact with you....thanks Stephen. Post here often, and I look forward to meeting you in Portland and getting to know you here on Red Square. Ken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
