The C series is next on my list.Its a Great looking machine and a work horse. I was thinking of adding a light just like you have here, could come in handy

I actually added that rear light (and cigarette lighter socket) for illuminating a small float I pulled in a Halloween parade when my kids were small. It was in several parades and I polished it so much I actually rubbed through the thin paint on it.

I passed it along to Don Oliver to give it a good home and a fitting restoration someday ! (Right Don?!😎)

Looks like the ladies got into a little trouble and wound up in Mr McGregors Mobil jail cell 😬

Bobby Unser told the story that he hopped on the hood of the Wheel Horse because he wanted an extra $1,000 for winning the race that year.  He told the owner that he was not going to get off of the tractor until he agreed to give him the bonus!

This was an ASA parade in Andersen, IN.  Wheelhorse leading the pack!  Notice the second car is a being pulled by one and the third appears to be towed by another GT.

My wife’s grandfather is on the door of the Goodwrench car.

 

Back in the parade, my FIL and wife riding on the trunk lid…. We aren’t sure who was sticking out the passenger window.

Not a Wheel Horse but my Dad was a Simplicity man.

Here is a picture of him and I aboard his new 728 Broadmoor in the winter on 1972.

Not WH, but vintage.       My Great Great Grandfather   Corporal John Lee.   Fought in many Civil War battles including the final at Appomattox.553913735_JohnLee.png.ad897c5c356fe9772c9f523af3dff222.png

Not as vintage as most pictures here but that’s me on what I would find out was a hodgepodge of a wheelhorse.  Original tractor was a raider that was burned up in a fire when one grandfather owned it and other grandfather dug it out of the ashes and pieced it together with lawn ranger parts he had to make functional again 

Last picture is that tractor today finally back the way it came from the factory
