Now there are 25, shoot me now.

Got to meet RFWHorse and his lovely wife yesterday and brought home all of his Wheel Horse stuff.  He had an Onan and was fed up with it and shed his stable of Horses and attachments.  I'm confident that one day he will get a good one with a Kohler (and a lot less wires) and rekindle his love for Horses.   

 

The 520 has one of the sweetest sounding engines I've ever heard but needs a lot of wiring work, the deck is solid with no rust, has some new bearings and new blades.  The 518 is the quietest one, but it has no motor he he, also got another 50" mid mount grader, front deck carrier, extra rear wheels + tires, and some new parts, oil filter, misc small stuff.

 

They're getting cleaned up now and will have more pics hopefully later this afternoon.

Isn't that the truth.  Why don't they ever show up like 30 mins away?

Actually one would do the job.

Now that's funny right there. He is probably going back foe the end tables in the morning. "Honey, Where did all our furniture go?"

[AMC RULES 37,196]

Yep, that's what happened at my house.    

[squonk 43,779]

Roundhoods with out engines make nice end tables. Lamp on top, Magazines where the engine goes, snacks and drinks on the seat and easy to move. What's not to like?

  Out with the furnishings, in with the   's.

We wouldn't expect the Horses to sit on bare wood, would we?

I have enough projects for a lifetime.  The tractors are just one of many.

Now I know how to get them in the house! 

[Molon_Labe 731]

Geno it looks like you're drying up the supply in the entire mid-west. Looking to corner the market?

 

Those are some nice looking horses.

[speedyleedy 205]

Nice haul !!!!!!!!

[Geno 1,929]

They feel better now and so do I after several hours of pressure washing.  

 

I still can't get over the massiveness of the 518 duals. 

 

 

[km3h 543]

That is one mean looking rear end. Gino you will never finish all the projects you have now even if you life another hundred years. Very nice haul.

[Geno 1,929]

I'm still out here at the shop and found more room for these projects.  I put some under another project I'm still trying to find time for.

I built a 28X16 foot garage a few years ago and quickly realized I should have made it twice that size. You never have enough room.

[kudzu3 323]

Come on Gene, leave a few for the rest of us  . Man, if I had your shop, my life would be complete.

Geno I would seriously consider sacrificing body parts to have a shop like that. My hat is off to you

[AMC RULES 37,196]

  How are you going to fix that wheel well Geno?    

[Geno 1,929]

When the rear end isn't dropped it fits nicely. Even with it dropped there's about 3/4" clearance on each side. 

[Wayne 28]

Oh, man... make sure the safety locks are both engaged on that rotary, and make absolutely sure you check at least 3x that nothing is in the way before you lower it. I saw a guy drop a mid late 80's LTD on another car next to it when he forgot to move a post jack before lowering... almost got my tool box!
