My '47 sedan delivery has wood framing to attach the inside wall paneling to. The back door jamb is wood (and wrapped in metal) that the hinges attach to. The floor was plywood. It's definitely not a Woodie but still has wood components. I heard a joke about a Woodie some time ago. A fellow bought a new one and some later the dealer asked what he thought of his new vehicle. The owner said "It sure looked better before I removed it from the wooden shipping crate."

I feel your pain! I live 7 miles from town. I keep a fair supply of pvc,shark bites etc plumbing fitting. But, the universe has an unwritten rule that all plumbing projects must take a minimum of three trips to town for parts and those trips must go to multiple stores because everyone just sold their last fitting you need.

If you happen to remove or disturb the transmission drive pulley you need this. Just in case you were not aware of it.

"RAN UNTIL PARKED" Actually looks like a solid machine. Very little rust. Definitely worth saving!

What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?
Handy Don replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
IF you have an adjustable regulator (these were on WHs with generators only--the voltage regulators on stator-charged tractors are not adjustable), the screw is inside as shown below. BE VERY CAREFUL. Just 1/8th of a turn will move the voltage by about one volt. [Clockwise/tighty = higher voltage]. Personally, I use a very accurate volt meter attached at the battery terminals even while recognizing that there will be a lag as the battery catches up with the new charging voltage--the lag is longer if the change is substantial and/or if the battery is weak (as in 5 or 10 minutes with the engine running well above idle)! -
Betsy and I took a nice boat ride with our friends up the Merrimack river from Newburyport to Haverhill. Tied up at the town dock and had lunch at "The Tap". Crused back down river to Newburyport and hung out on the boat for a while with a couple of cocktails. All in all, an awesome day! Beats mowing the lawn! Times like this, I miss our boat.

I’m glad it worked for you -
It's NOT that bad .

Weeded around my vegetables. Re staked some of them since we had wind this week while we were in NJ. Restocked the farm “stand” and more weeding tommorow. But will be able to use a few tractors tommorow at least.

G ood point, the spindle was HOT

Agreed. Especially when you have hydraulic lift! -
When searching for a suspected bearing failure heat can be your best indication. Don't burn yourself in the process but after running the deck for a short time check all moving parts for heat and you can find the most likely culprit.

That was a cluster. And it still isn't 100% done. Of course I broke the old cartridge trying to get the handle off. So I went to the store, and the style of valve I had they don't carry any parts for anyway. I don't know if it's obsolete, or contractor-only crap, or what, but nobody around me had one, so I bought a whole Delta kit. Of course the valve I was replacing had all female threads, and all of the available replacements had male threads, a detail I overlooked until I was home. Local Ace doesn't carry shark-bites, which is how 3 of the 4 lines were attached, so I tried FIP adapters, which of course made everything too long to fit. So I had to go back down to Load's for shark-bites with female threads. Got those in, stuck a pipe plug in the bottom port until I can get the hard-line for the lower spigot modified, so I will have to take it all apart again, but at least the shower works. It doesn't seem to get as hot as it used to though. And it already wasn't hot enough for me most days.

I think that's just reflection and oxidation on the chrome.

Guess you need to buy a bigger Wheel Horse with a six speed or an eight speed transaxle. -
