Foozerush 40 #1 Posted August 15, 2014 Seen this add on our favorite place to find our next ones (CL)... and it caught my eye. Wheel Horse Challenger 12 automatic they list this number 1-040-620307. Not familiar with "challenger" named steeds... It has electric PTO. I read RS just about every night and swear I've never seen a challenger before, I must be getting old.....

Sparky-(Admin) 19,633 #2 Posted August 16, 2014 Hmmm....someone must have had those decals made or there is some product out there with that name and they slapped on those decals. The Wheel Horse decals on the hood are not from the Charger tractors either. They almost look like the decals on the all plastic Lawn Rangers. Mike...........

Sparky-(Admin) 19,633 #3 Posted August 16, 2014 I think they dropped the last # off the model # they gave. 1-0400 1971 Lawn & Garden Tractor Charger 12 Automatic Kohler K301S-47407C OR 1-0401 1972 Lawn & Garden Tractor Charger 12 Automatic Kohler K301S-47421B Mike.........

Foozerush 40 #4 Posted August 16, 2014 Thanks for shedding some light on it Mike. Looks solid from the pics. Glad to know my mental encyclopedia of WH knowledge wasn't missing a chapter on those models.... Haha... Been into them for about 4 yrs now, I getting pretty confident on identifying them, but this one threw me for a loop.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 14,926 #5 Posted August 16, 2014 Looks pretty cut up and modified. My guess is that it was once a Charger 12. The way it's been butchered, I would say that it would definately be a "challenge". 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 36,954 #6 Posted August 16, 2014 Hence the name. Challenger to make it right. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coadster32 793 #7 Posted August 16, 2014 My first thought was maybe be a mopar fan...but charger to challenger...what would be the point? I'm with Bob on this one...(and laughing with Craig as well). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
