Deadguy 861 #1 Posted March 10, 2018 I found this posted for sale on line. Should this poor horse be rescued or put down honorably? 4 7 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
classiccat 548 #3 Posted March 10, 2018 It will undoubtedly have some PTJDD but we never let a brother behind! I wish this were closer: 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BOB ELLISON 2,976 #6 Posted March 10, 2018 There is a lot of potential there. I see a wheel horse tractor that is sick but a little pepto and a good enema it will be good as new. 4 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Achto 26,537 #9 Posted March 10, 2018 Wash the mold off & get rid of that snowblower motor and that could be be a perfectly good tractor. 5 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WheelHorse79 271 #10 Posted March 10, 2018 (edited) I've heard of gender confusion, but this is brand confusion! If the tractor is still running, you could throw some WH parts on it and paint it red, and most people (outside this forum) wouldn't know it had some JD parts. Looks like a Frankenhorse now.

Daddy Don 889 #12 Posted March 10, 2018 If you have the will and the time fix her up. I have seen worse. Red paint is cheap. Give it a good sand blasting and new paint then it will feel like it is back home. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tankman 3,515 #16 Posted March 10, 2018 (edited) Save the Horse! A total strip down, wear a facemask. Wouldn't want to breathe any gangrene. All the above.

Chris G 3,274 #24 Posted March 10, 2018 Anything can be saved. Just depends on how patient you can be with it. I think if you can look past the green stains of abuse, you will see a good horse under there. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankman 3,515 #25 Posted March 10, 2018 (edited) An exorcism is the Red Square spiritual practice of evicting the demons from the old Horses who were treated like "you-know-what" !
