couldnt help my self bought a wheel horse from Hammerhead for parts for a future project

 

 

Then off to Mt Gilead to my barn to drop off parts tractor & pickup my B100 I sold to 55rj35jr son who just moved to house where needs to mow. funny thing is a couple years ago I bought this tractor from 55rj35jr. then back to speedyleedys. had to unload a wheel horse I hauled to his house he bought at auction yesterday. when it was time to leave speedyleedy went to move his new tractor & it wouldnt move. so we had to figure it out. turn out to be a broken roll pin in the clutch linkage. got home about 6:30pm. What a great Day. Thanks guys

I would have loved to be in central Ohio with you guys. My Grandparents took me to Mt. Gilead and Mt. Vernon before I was a teen more than a few times. That's where my Grandfather was born. I had quite a few relatives in the area(Morrow County) back then. I remember an oil well, and it was pumping, between the house and the barn, in the middle of the yard-and the smell, terrible. A city boy like me, I was just thrilled to see life like it used to be, when everyone had a farm. Everyone has passed on now, I have no idea where I was at, as it has been 40 plus years now.

A great day with excellent people and Wheel Horses...it's that time of year.    That first picture is an album cover...if I ever saw one.

That was a good day for sure. I hope you guys were able to turn your cell phones off for most of the time you were together.

Great time had by all when my Ohio Wheel Horse buddies come down for a visit! Great to see Mike(55rj35jr) and Tim(speedyleedy) again. Met another cool guy and fellow collector Derek(octfst), I've seen his WH's at the Findlay Ohio tractor show and he has some nice one's! Glad to help out with the future project, sounds cool! We had a good time and talked tractors all day. The tractors are awesome but the people are the best part of this great hobbie!

I guess I forgot to mention to the guys that most of these tractors were for sale! Oops! My wife Tammy even came out of her woman cave to snap some pics of the boyz! Good job TJ...Hammerhead

It was nice meeting your wife Tammy  & would like to thank her for taking the pictures. Its a good thing you forgot to mention there was more tractors for sale because my wife Tammy thinks I have enough. dont know how she knows that because she doesnt even know how many I have. I told her about the parts tractor & she was ok after I told her how much & what for. thanks for every thing.

[55rj35jr 623]

Boy I'm glad you forgot to mention those were for sale I think we all would have been in trouble if we brought any more horses home! (for now anyway) sure had a great time... thanks again!

Mt. Vernon, I helped my dad drive a Gleaner combine home to Tiffin, Oh one Sunday morning about 20 years ago......  That was a long trip at 15 mph, funniest part was the look on the gas station attendants face when we pulled up to top off the Diesel tank.  Hose was just barely long enough.

Ohio is a beautiful place! I grew up in Byesville, Ohio which is Southeastern part of the state. I love going back!

Looks likes you guys had a great time! 

 

 

Glad to see the Wheel Horse fervor is strong in Ohio!

 

Some of the best things about Wheel Horses are meeting their owners and listening to their Horse Stories!

 Glad you guys had a good time. Mt. Vernon, my uncle worked for the newspaper for many years, used to go visit when I was a kid, have not been there in 40 + yrs.
