it followed me home

[limited12 360]

I have never seen one, but had to bring it home

Wheel horse 22 rotary mower model number 3-1641 serial number 603802

I could use some advice on what year, how rare are these

The gentleman i got this from, it was his father-in-laws and he purchased it new, came with the origanal manual

Nice score...runs good too? 

[Jake Kuhn 1,579]

Very neat!

Looks like a Tecumseh engine....I don't know if the Techy engines have date codes like briggs but that would be one way to get an idea on year.

How cool is that,

I didnt realise wheelhorse made that sort of mower.

[wheeledhorseman 579]

That is one really cool find!!!!

 

There's no model with that number on the Toro site but having trawled through all the walk behind mowers for you there is one with the model number 3-2641 that looks to be pretty much the same as yours.

 

The 3-2641 is a 22" SD mower from 1973 and has a 3.5 hp Techy LAV 35 engine.

 

Possibly your 3-1641 has a different swathe but the '22' tends to suggest not or it is perhaps a year earlier or something but check it out.

 

Hope this helps

Go to

https://lookup3.toro.com/partdex/index.cfm?xCaller=Toro

and do a search for

22" lawnmower

 

Most of the tractor model numbers in 1969 end in 41.

603802 also looks like a 1969 serial number.

 

No date on the manual?

Thanks for all the help, it will turn over and fire but that is about it for now, been sitting in a barn for several years and he could not find the bagger but did tell me when he gets the barn cleaned out if he finds it he will call.

Garry, did look at the manual and the date is 69 (why didn't i think of that)

Thanks again for everyones help and advice

Great find!  And it's got great decals.  Might not be a bad idea to shoot some clear pics and send measuements to Terry (VinylGuy) so he can have them handy in case someone finds another!  (I've been looking for several years for any one of the WH pushmowers)

Great ideal, i will get some pics this week and send them to Terry
