Horse46 512 #1 Posted January 14, 2015 At first it just hurt my eye's, then I thought maybe I could save it? But i think maybe it should just be put to sleep What do you think, am I being harsh? Isn't cheap either. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coadster32 793 #4 Posted January 14, 2015 Besides the color, that side cover looks like crap also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geno 1,928 #5 Posted January 14, 2015 They all deserve to be saved. And turn that hood emblem around! 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wheelhorseman 3,197 #6 Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) Take off the side covers and give it a red and white (color rebuild) and it will look good again. Looks like maybe a Honda engine and the owner modified the hood to accommodate the gas tank. In any case don't send it to the glue factory I do like the stack!

shallowwatersailor 3,213 #10 Posted January 14, 2015 The side covers give it a more contemporary look. Maybe the owner was trying to imitate a Marshall or British Wallace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SousaKerry 500 #16 Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) Well at least the wheels aren't painted yellow Just wait for the first hot day on parade duty and it will take care of itself and overheat due to lack of airflow.

stevasaurus 22,229 #21 Posted January 14, 2015 Actually, that is the best looking green tractor that I have ever seen. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think if it was a little more tractor I would kinda like it, it's the little boy hot rodder in me You know that is still essentially a it's a little freaky but it is what it is, where on the other hand the green one isn't what it is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

C-101plowerpower 1,605 #24 Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) hm, looks like someone wanted a little Fendt tractor(google that if you wanna know) either way, a horse is a horse, and if you can save the horse of course this one's pretty bad looking too http://www.speurders.nl/overzicht/wheel-horse-tuin-trekker-148062698.html?sr_ab=1&query=wheel+horse&local-postcode=&local-distance_value=0&min_prijs=&max_prijs=&order_direction=&order_by= Edited January 14, 2015 by C-101plowerpower Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
