Looks like a nice gathering! What is the story on the one with the front mount generator and the "C140" decal? Is that a new model???

Thanks guys... yes that was a 653, and a 753 for sale... they were 2 of the 12 from Missouri. They also brought a 551, a 654 and a partial 400 for round hoods... otherwise there was a Raider 12, a C-175, Ranger 800, A-90E, C-121, C-121 built up for pulling and a B-100. This was a couple brothers selling off stuff to settle their dad's estate. He had been a collector and puller. They came with three pickups and two trailers full of tractors and parts....By the end of the weekend, they were more into Wheel Horses than they could have imagined, but they were very happy to make some friends and sell some parts. One of the brothers was headed for Iraq or Afghanistan when they went back to MO... but since they got bit by the bug... they took the puller and the two little verts back with them to work on after the brother gets back.

As for the C-140 w/generator... it was a C-120 but the 12 horse blew up and the guy replaced it with a 14... so he put 140 on it when he repainted it.

Looks like Dale is either about to kick the table, or high jump it! :banghead:

They are not always the most unflattering... They are usually the ones that make us smile the most.. :USA: :banghead:

Of all the ideas so far, Mike is the farthest from the truth. I don't throw punches of any kind, lover not a fighter here.

Mike does have a good point, I quite often find myself laughing like an idiot at some of the stories you guys come up with!!! :banghead:

Bill: I try! You get around pretty good yourself though. Next year, Minnesota will take priority, for obvious reasons, with luck, and enough sales, I'll make Pennsylvania too. I've been hauling a lot of the stuff off for scrap, I mean, stuff like lift arms, drawbars, deck lift parts, non-Wheel Horse blades, etc., there are tons of them out there. Sold many of my shop power tools at a friends yardsale, so found some room there. If I could ditch a couple of tractors, I'd be in good shape.

It kinda looks like Dale just had an argument with his invisible friend :USA: and is taking a poke at him...............or

He's in the middle of an aerobic exercise routine. :banana: Remember he just had a birthday and is trying to keep his shape. Hey, round IS a shape.....

      2018 Le Sueur Pioneer Power
      By CasualObserver
      Had another good year at Pioneer Power... we hit a max of 50 display tractors, not counting at least another half-dozen that were seen at various times driving around the show that weren't displayed.  This year's feature was the Historical Construction Equipment Association, so there were some great examples of some of the old heavy equipment.  Enjoy the pics... I am not posting everything I took, as others will have some to share too.

      more 2009 photos some closeups
      By CasualObserver
      Here's the pics I took of the Wheel Horses at the LeSeuer show, I forgot the camera the next two days so I missed some of people, as well as the rest of the show. Have to be better about that next year. Some recognizable Red Square presence at the show... joebob, mikewilliams, ole550, stevesarus's 502 (didn't get a pic of Steve) and Dale's NOS plow that's still for sale. Made a lot of contacts with local people again this year and should have an even better turn out next year.

      2008 LeSueur Pioneer Power
      By CasualObserver
      We had a great weekend for our debut show, the weather was mostly nice. Friday could have done with a little less wind... (30+ mph) I think we had about 20 tractors all together show up for display, and some guys from Missouri came up with 12 to sell. I know Mike Williams took some more pictures, so hopefully he'll get some up here too!










      Edit:... I've split the discussion for this to the General shows area. Please post comments on the pictures in this topic. Thanks!

      2016 LeSueur Pioneer Power Show, Le Sueuer, MN
      By CasualObserver
      I've just heard this morning that the Le Sueur show that some of our  members have attended for several years is going to host the MN Cockshutt collectors which I'm guessing is a small group because they also want to do a shared main feature of Wheel Horse and other brands of GT feature next year. Show dates are Aug 26-28, 2016.  We are getting first crack at promotion since we've had a Wheel Horse presence at this show for a while now. Our group, the North Central Wheel Horse Events Club (NCWHEC) has been going to this show since 2008. We were initially added to the show in 2008 as a feature and almost not invited back due to some miscommunication and misunderstandings about expectations and show operation. This show does not allow a general swap meet at the summer show. They hold a separate annual swap meet in the spring with about 1500 vendors that take up the entire showgrounds and even a lot of area used for parking during the summer show.  However, when you're the feature, vendors who have non-swap items are allowed to have booths... such as decals, new reproduction parts, other novelties and memorabilia type stuff. Just no used part swap meet type stuff. Being the shared feature, there will also be use of half of a 60x130 feature building for anyone who might want to set up there with displays that they want to keep out of any potential weather.

      Anyway, I'm posting this out here nice and early to see if anyone has an interest in coming out the Minnesota way in 2016.  Lots of time to work out details and questions. Just wanted to throw this up nice and early to avoid some conflicts with other shows that are usually around that time. I know we got Lane a pretty good turnout a couple years ago when he asked for representation at an IL show... I'm hoping that with enough advance notice and planning we can really get a great turnout.
