Troll183 14 #1 Posted September 1 Hello, My name is Don and I am not new to small tractors having had 2 Cub Cadets (1962 Original & 1966 model 102) but am new to Wheel horses. I recently found an add on CL for a RJ for sale in Ohio. I live in Southeastern PA. Contacted the seller and made a 6 1/2 hour trip to see and buy my first WH. Thank you Mike (@ML3). It was my pleasure to meet Mike who is an awesome man and a new friend. Since you all like pictures I am including a few. 5 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 67,447 #5 Posted September 1 That little RJ sure is getting the road miles in! I took it in on trade this March from mid-Michigan, Mike met me in PA to pick it up at the Big Show, he brought it back to Ohio and you brought it back to PA! Fun stuff, enjoy! 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Troll183 14 #9 Posted September 1 (edited) Thank you all for the welcome and kind comments. @Pullstart thank you for the history on it, always good to know. I am planning on bringing it to the BIG SHOW, looking forward to it. it will most likely be a rat rod as I really like them and it is a good candidate.
