Fennellc 0 #1 Posted May 10, 2017 This is the only picture I have right now, I will get more later today when I visit my father. We got this Wheel Horse, with a blower for $450 last night. We see no where on here that identifies what variant/model this is. My father is a Wheel Horse fanatic, and even he was stumped. If I remember right, it has an 18hp Briggs and Stratton IC motor on it. I didn't even know Wheel Horse actually used that motor. I am kinda new to this scene, though. Any help on identifying what this is would be wonderful! If you need more information, ask away and I will send it to my father and ask him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racinbob 10,276 #2 Posted May 10, 2017 There should be a tag under the seat with a model number. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im 99% positive we looked under the seat last night before putting it to bed, and found no tags/plates there at all. I will look again this evening when I am there and confirm this.

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 10,491 #7 Posted May 10, 2017 Wonder if it isn't a WorkHorse in disguise but think the 8-speed was 16hp. Garry 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jerry77 1,218 #8 Posted May 10, 2017 (edited) GT1800 (1994) or GT1848 ( 1993 ) ?? file:///C:/Users/Jared/Downloads/wheelhorseallyears%20(1).pdf ( just a shot in the dark - don't think it will pan out )... Edited May 10, 2017 by Jerry77 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GlenPettit 1,714 #9 Posted May 10, 2017 If that tag is unreadable, and the numbers were stamped in (pressed in), use the old "tombstone rubbing" method: lightly clean it first, lay a piece of thin paper over it and rub lightly back & forth with the side of a pencil lead, the depressed area with the numbers should appear white on a dark background now. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Molon_Labe 731 #11 Posted May 10, 2017 I think Garry nailed it too. The "TWIN" decal, no height adjuster and the B&S engine all point to a Work Horse. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DennisThornton 4,769 #12 Posted May 10, 2017 My "Work Horse" has a completely different paint scheme. I do understand the B&S were used and the Dial-a-Height was missing or optional on the Work Horses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
c-series don 7,785 #13 Posted May 11, 2017 It can't be a GT 1800 or 1848 as they were automatics. Also they didn't come with those rubber foot rests. They did however come with those smooth front tires. That twin decal is definitely work horse. Just my two cents!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
