clintonnut 127 #1 Posted April 16, 2012 Hi Guys, Been a while since I posted. Been really busy. Dad's moving soon to a new place and I decided to take the whole Clinton/Wheel Horse collection on my own. Mom had a shed built for me 2 years ago so with some shelving both along the walls and under the work bench, I can fit all the parts and 60 engines with space for 2 tractors and space to move around. The shed is 12'x18' so not bad. Plan to build an addition off the back sometime this summer to store some nutroasters. I like this new setup better. Also have plenty of "windchimes" Still only have about 2/3rds of the parts moved. Still need to move the crankshafts, flywheels, air cleaners, valves, pistons and rods over as well as a couple more engines and more gas tanks and shrouds. Hope to be full tourt in a couple months. Need to rebuild about half a dozen engines this summer at the least. Hope to sell some parts and engines as I want to invest in more parts lol.

clintonnut 127 #3 Posted April 16, 2012 All new old stock. You can get a couple gaskets and maybe a ring set and ignition parts if you are lucky in aftermarket. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

clintonnut 127 #7 Posted April 17, 2012 Are you saying your Dad is getting out of the hobby all together? He seems to have bigger commitments in life so we are starting to take things into our own hands. He will still be at tractor shows, auctions etc with me. As far as the parts Kelly, shipping would be the hold up but if I see you at the show I would be interested. Jake, That's about half of it (yikes) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
