CTPATRIOT 12 #1 Posted December 4, 2010 This was sitting behind an old Wheel Horse dealer's building.It was stored indoors for years until a few months ago.They used to use it for moving trailers and non running tractors around their place.Shouldn't take much to get her going.

Lane Ranger 11,410 #10 Posted December 4, 2010 Great find on the 1054 Wheel Horse! Looks like it is pretty complete. Two years ago my brother David turned this : into this after just a few weeks work: New tires front and rear and new seat and she now looks like this: :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CTPATRIOT 12 #11 Posted December 5, 2010 I did some cleanup today.I removed all the stick's and leaf's that were in it,and blew it off with my compressor.I got all the mold off of the steering wheel.After that i had the broken steering arm welded,it came out perfect.If i get some time tomorrow i'm gonna pull the carb and fuel tank.Here's a few more pics.
