sorekiwi 761 #3 Posted January 6, 2010 B-80's are awesome tractors. I have one that was severley abused before I got it, and I've worked the hell out of it too, and it just keeps on chugging. If I decide it wont jinx it, I'll put a coat of paint on it this summer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wheel horse 1045 2 #11 Posted January 6, 2010 i took 1 like that and droped a 10hp kohler and it was a beast Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hotrodmerc 1 #12 Posted January 7, 2010 I am hoping to get this into dependable condition so I can give my 552 a break and do a resto on it. It has been used since my Dad purchased it in 1964. After owning a Wheel Horse why would anybody want anything else?????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
