B-8074 19 #3 Posted October 20, 2010 Are the wheel horse lawn sweepers rare? The model # 7-2512 and it works ok, but it needs some TLC. The front wheel weights are nice, gonna get them cleaned up and mounted tommorow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hcminis 1,532 #6 Posted October 21, 2010 Purchased this one in a similar deal...not telling what I paid for it but have seen them on fleebay for $200.00...but we all know that is the exception. This was taken before the power wash. My only problem is the bottom of basket (plastic) has separated from the sides (fabric). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wheel horse 1045 2 #7 Posted October 21, 2010 prices vary so much depending on location and what a buyer is wanting to pay,if you look on ebay you can get a close idea to the price of an item. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TT-(Moderator) 1,129 #11 Posted October 21, 2010 The "today" price of the equivalent sweeper from Lambert is $570. LINK I bought this one for $50: So........ I guess it's safe to say the value is somewhere between free and $570 :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whfan74 2,015 #12 Posted October 21, 2010 I love when something pops up like that........congrats on the find. My sweeper was pretty cheap........granted the basket is in pretty rough shape, but can be re-done. Great score on the wheel weights! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B-8074 19 #13 Posted October 21, 2010 Thanks guys. I ran into a problem with the sweeper. One of the wheels is all messed up. I found out that there was a spacer missing and the small gear on the brushes axle chewed up the inside of the wheel. I can get the small gear but the wheel is NLA. Any ideas or if there are any other makes that would have usable parts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
