rmaynard 15,292 #1 Posted November 20, 2014 Well, it's not "black" Friday, but tomorrow I am going "shopping". Found a guy about an hour from me who has a small barn full of garden tractors. Not all Wheel Horses, but there are a few. Don't know what I am going to come home with, but I will let you know tomorrow. 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rmaynard 15,292 #14 Posted November 21, 2014 Well, I am back. Trip wasn't a total bust. I came back with one. Most of what was there was junk. I did pass on a 1257 that was way over priced, and he had a couple of other rust buckets that were buried under tons of other stuff. Nothing out of the ordinary. No round hoods. There was what I think was a Porter Cable Moto Mow (rough) and lots of miscellaneous parts. What I did load up though was this 1976 B-60. Lots of painted-over rust, and bad paint job, but the sheet metal is pretty straight, and there is no rust-through. The engine turns, but is missing the gas lines from the pump to carburetor, and tank to pump. Recoil still works. And the curious thing on the back? I think the previous owner (not the current seller) used this tractor in parades, and carried his dog on the back. Anyway, it's a project tractor. 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
