Picked Up a New Horse Today-For Family

Recommended Posts

wh5208speed

While driving around my territory for work I noticed a really nice Wheel Horse for sale. 414-8 with 48" Deck and Snow Blade. My uncle has been looking for an extra tractor to mow his grass for a rental property and was tired always having to load up his 312 to mow both places. I told him I would keep an eye out for a nice tractor for him.

Stopped in and agreed on a price and picked up today. Dropped off the tractor at my uncle's house and put the dozer blade in my garqge. It's only right to share in your good Wheel Horse finds :)

Looks like a nice clean machine. I like the aluminum trailer as well, bet it pulls nice and easy!

I hope your Uncle likes his new 414-8 as much as I like mine. From your picture I notice the side of the seat is smooth and wrinkle free. Is the other side just as nice? Also does the tracctor have an hour meter? Just curious as my 414 was not equipped with one.

The seat was in nice shape. It does not have an hour meter. The guy who I bought it off of took really good care of his place and equipment. No leaks, oil was changed, deck was quite and smooth, no scratches on the hood or decals....etc.

 

My uncle really like it, and that is what matters the most. I told him if he didn't want it, I would take it back off of his hands......which I don't expect to be happening anytime soon :)

 

I have now infected most of my family with the Wheel Horse Virus.....I guess that makes me a "carrier" of the Bug.

 

Uncle - C-121-8

Uncle - 416-8 , 312-8, and 414-8

Brother 520H

Dad 520H and C-161-8

Son (he is 9) 520H, C-161-8, C-161 Auto

 

Funny part is, no one had any of these Wheel Horses until the last 6 years :eusa-think:

Nice find for your uncle.

Been looking on the net and can't seem to find a cure for that infection yet.

Always looking

I just infected my brother with the bug, he always had the yellow tractors or the other red one.
