Cutlas3391 776 #1 Posted January 31, 2015 Found very hard to find Wheel horse tractor today. I got a call from a friend a few days ago who knew a friend that knew a friend that his cousin knew a friend's mom and his moms dad had this tractor lol. Well it was a sweet barn find Wheel horse 420LSE!!! The production plate is missing on the hood but the owners manual I think it's number #77... Awesome Find!!!! I don't even know the value on these tractors don't see to many up for sale.Its been sitting for years now but I fire up engine and runs very good. Overall tractor is in good shape and needs alot TLC. Super excited!! 22 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cheesegrader 433 #2 Posted January 31, 2015 That looks great for a barn find! I like the chrome details, and the seat, too. I'm not sure what to think of that steering wheel. That can't be original!?!? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

608KEB 794 #5 Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) Nice find. I have that brochure. Crazy to think they were about $8,000.00 new. That would be about $20,000.00 in today's dollars! By the way if its in to rough of shape. I'll take it off your hands!!! Edited January 31, 2015 by 608KEB 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That can't be original!?!? Yes actually the steering wheel came like that on it when they where built. I'm sure they bought them from another manufacturer like a auto racing company.

Cutlas3391 776 #12 Posted January 31, 2015 did it come with the chrome deck wheels also, can't see in the pictures. nice find eric j Yes the chrome deck are there. They probably need the most help to come back alive Nice find. Did you get the BerVac snowthrower and cab also? Garry I just got the Ber vac snowblower I'm pretty going to sell that one off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken B 3,116 #13 Posted January 31, 2015 That looks great for a barn find! I like the chrome details, and the seat, too. I'm not sure what to think of that steering wheel. That can't be original!?!? The chrome steering wheel is original, Congrats on your find! The 420's don't pop up for sale very often. I have been offered close to 3K for mine but contrary to what some people may think, money isn't everything and its not for sale. If I sold mine then where do I go? 3 grand is gone faster than a fart in a wind storm.. Beside's it is nice to have something that most guys don't have.. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cutlas3391 776 #14 Posted January 31, 2015 My plans with the 420lse is too keep it orginal as possible. All the chrome will polished up nice. Obviously change all the fluids and filters. The rear tires are loaded belive my back tells me they are lol. So I'll drain them in a local creek just kidding. I love ag tires but I think I'm just going to buy all turf tires. No repainting just orginal the way it is. Also I think I'm going to get a name plate for the hood.... 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
