varosd 1,185 #8 Posted July 6, 2011 Wow! never knew about Big Bird! Did remember Funny Farm! No I was meaning Dennis Quaid in 1988's " Everybody's All-American" The former College football legend " the Ghost" is contracted to do promos at the local bar and he is getting older and feeling like the glory years have passed him by (aint that the truth! ) The localbar owner is trying to talk to him as Dennis is cutting the grass, ignoring him...looks like a B-111 with a briggs engine. check it out! don V Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
varosd 1,185 #9 Posted May 26, 2014 Bringing this back from the past. I was watching some old movies and "Winning" (1969) was on. Paul Newman Indy racing movie that showed a Wheel Horse at the 2:18(or so) min mark as he goes into one of the pit buildings. I tried to find a clip from MeTube but no luck.

MalMac 1,328 #10 Posted May 26, 2014 If I remember on one of the episodes of the old show "In The Heat Of The Night with Carroll O'Conner there was a scene in front of a hardware dealer that sold Toro. There was a 520H and a rear engine rider. They were right up front and very Visable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BPjunk 184 #13 Posted May 27, 2014 Wheel Horse has been well represented on TV and the movies, the latest that I have noticed is a quick shot of a 656 on American Pickers when they were in a junk collectors yard in Iowa. Wild Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
