AlexR 2,998 #1 Posted 15 hours ago About the name, so the 73's are the no-name year for wheelhorse so I figured it needed a name. Well these are wheelhorses, so I thought what horse name or breed? Morgan horses are a reddish color and also used as multi purpose plow horses back in the day. Which is what this tractor is gonna be, a multi purpose plow horse 8 speed with hydraulics. This is going to be a continuation of my 73 wheelhorse for reference here is the original thread. It is not a C120 it is a 1973 14-8 and I am planning on returning it to a 14HP Kohler (12hp on it now is fairly worn) and add hydraulics this photo should give some idea of what is coming. This one will require some patience it's going to take some time. Also thanks to the Wisconsin boys @WHX?? @Achto for their help in making this possible. 3 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Defendant #1 (first wife) was, and has been all about horses and Morgans were her preferred breed. Beautiful animals. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My Grammy, my mom, and Trina's mom... all do the same thing. Just reel off all the names from 2 or 3 generations back. Eventually you'll tag the one you're actually after.
