WheelHorse79 271 #7 Posted July 5, 2013 I was just about your daughter's age when my Dad bought his 854 on 6/6/66. I fell in love with it too, and couldn't wait until I grew big enough to drive it. Wonderful memories, and I'm glad to see another generation building their own precious memories. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BPjunk 184 #10 Posted July 5, 2013 With all of the Wheel Horse tractors that I have owned I feel the 1964 model 854 was the best looking of all ! Maybe it's the hood that is 1 inch longer then other round hood models ..... or maybe the neat looking dash .... it could be the powerful 8 hp Kohler engine .....I still have not made up my mind on what makes the 854 so good looking .... I just don't know of any other garden tractor that looks as good as the Wheel Horse model 854 ! I hope you good luck on restoring your 854.
