The RJ58 was the big hit for spectators this year at my local festivals here in Carroll County OH. 
the children loved getting their pictures sitting on it, then they discovered the bicycle horn under the steering wheel. It’s always a joy even in parades. Just love showing off part of my collection every year and hearing all the stories from those that had WH in their lives at one time. Can hardly wait to get to retirement so I can get some of my other models back to their glory in working order and be able to attend other shows/festivals throughout the year. My fellow tractor enthusiasts always know when a spectacular starts asking about WH, they point in my direction. I study up on the history of the different models and always intrigue those that didn’t know much about how WH came to be. This website is one place that has helped me learn so much about the WH history and I thank you for sharing your knowledge that I am able to pass on to keep WH alive and well.

Awesome update, you said you’d be showing it a bunch this year!  If anyone recalls, this was the raffle RJ from the Big Show!

Yes this is the one. After a few minor issues, she runs like new. I had to come up with some weight on the front to keep her from Rearing Up. I had a dozer mount I put on and built a simple wooden box with the bricks. A lot of people thought it was a cute idea. Added about 25# but it was enough to Tame Her. T shirts & hoodies are available on wheelhorseclub.com

      Super C rear pto
      By wh315-8
      I was fortunate to find a main frame bracket for the C195 rear pto, I researched the pulleys and have them. I can make a bracket #109820 #11 on ipb, which is the rear angled one but if someone would be able to supply me with some measurements, it would be very helpful. I can guess with what I have. Or if someone has this part available for sale, I am interested.

      Value of RJ collection
      By RJcollector
      Ive been thinking about selling my 4 RJ-58s and all the attachments and parts I have. I have 4 tractors-2 have Kohler K91T , 1 has the Clinton and one has no engine. Only 1 is missing the serial number decal. Kohlers run. Clinton needs a carb. I have original exhaust shields AND belt guards for 3 of them. 3 mower decks, 2 plows, cart, 2 spare transmissions, parts breakdowns, original manuals and sale tags, seats, tires.  Not sure if I should sell it as 1 big collection or break it up. And also a good starting price?  I'll post pics when I get a chance. Thanks

      Triked out 704
      By Traveller28
      I wanted to jump on here and show y'all my lastest project. A 1960's model 704(mainly, other parts are used that aren't 704) i decided to try what I've wanted to do for a while. I had a bunch of parts lying around from other builds I've done and decided to pull out the frame and hood from the last 704 I built and start putting together my tricycle gear tractor.

      Super C195 3 point options
      By wh315-8
      Curious what aftermarket options has anyone done to add the 3 point to the C195?
      Seems that the JD 317 style could be a bolt on to the C195s uprights. Some other brands seem similar that might bolt on with some minor modifications. Otherwise I know the D series is a similar setup other than the upper arm and the center point bracket, but it looks to be a fairly simple design to build. 
      MF 1855 looks close to WH design.
      Case 446 design almost looks identical setup.
