Wheelhorse Facebook

I need to say thanks for our guidelines on Classified posts for including need to state price, location, ect. Facebook Wheel Horse Parts group doesn't stipulate and many posts a fishing expedition it seems.

There are way too many "lower life forms" that sell WH parts on CL and FB Marketplace. They are not one bit interested in preserving the hobby, just the color of folding money.

I have had mostly decent transactions on Fleabay - but the most accurate, knowledgeable and honest are the folks here on Red Square....

You really don't want me to get started about  on FB. Way too much molesting and stupid things going on for a purist like me. Just can't take the mauling of thoroughbreds.  I had to block all things horse there including RS on FB. 

I don't know why but when the morons ask stupid questions there I scoff at them but here I gladly answer dumb questions.

 

Only one there with a brain is Bob Ranger. Forget what his handle is here but he is the only one who knows what he is talking about.  Posts many references & links to posts here ...   I have a feeling most ignore his references to manuals here. 

 

Once in a blue moon is there a market place listing to a a horse or implement  that needs saving for a fair price. 

Then there is the guy that has a parts tractor with no motor for absurd money. 

I once sold a running driving Charger 12 to a guy there for 200. Needed a lot of love it never got but a day later he had it on MP for 500! Called it a rare collectors model.

I stayed away for years then sampled it a few times.  Currently back on because too many legitimate businesses are abandoning their websites and using FB so even the meatheads can be accessed.

I can tolerate the dumb questions to an extent. It's the stupid answers on FB that make me cringe!

I totally agree. It’s not only stupid answers, but sometimes downright wrong and or condescending answers. That’s something you will never find here with our fine folks.

Got that right. Often times hilarious.

OP: My headlights only come on when the key is on.

DA: I had one did that once. Rebuilt the carb and fixed it.

Spit my beer out on that one Bar but you got it all wrong...

I rebuilt my carb but now it won't go into gear. What did I do wrong?

[Bar Nuthin 1,953]

The best ones are posts like, "My motor quit running. Can anyone tell me what's wrong?"

That's when you break out the popcorn
