608KEB 794 #27 Posted November 23, 2014 I've never had a NOS Wheel Horse. Couldn't imagine having that 420LSE! But I do have a 75 C100 and a 94 520H . both are really low hours and in mint condition. I know several other members have found tractors in similar condition to mine. I put about 5 hours a year on each one. For me it brings a lot of joy using it! I couldn't just leave it sit there!!! Enjoy,nice score. Remember you you can't take it with you!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 14,851 #28 Posted November 23, 2014 Drive it or don't drive it Show it like a museum piece or use it like it was intended Fortunately for me, I don't have the dough to afford to buy a NOS 420LSE, so I won't ever have to make that decision. Whatever you decide Jason, I am very happy for you, and I support your decision. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hm12460 53 #29 Posted November 23, 2014 Awesome machine! I'd be tempted to put it in the living room and treat it like a fine piece of furniture. You'd be the only one around to have one in your living room! Let us know what you do with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ken B 3,116 #38 Posted November 25, 2014 Might be a challenge to flip that one for profit. This is something you really need to think about... I know you have a young family and I thought I heard you might be looking to buy a new house. If you should run into a pinch for cash it may be hard to even break even. I have thought long and hard about buying this tractor myself over the past few yrs. (believe it or not I could come up with the cash to buy it) but when I ask myself would I be able to sell it and at least break even if I had to... That is a tough call... I know if I got it I wouldn't be able to resist the temptation of lightin up a big fat cigar and firing that bad boy up and ridin it at the BIG SHOW, but then there goes the value.. Would you be able to resist the temptation of ridin it? I'm just trying to give you another angle to look at.. if you do get it I'll give you 100 bucks if I can take it for one lap around the infield.... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 36,940 #39 Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) Ahh...there's the profit. Selling rides on it at the big show... I'm in...for a buck. Edited November 25, 2014 by AMC RULES 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RMCIII 838 #40 Posted November 25, 2014 Tickets, get your tickets here! Tickets, get your tickets here to take a ride, on a true, nostalgic NOS, Wheel Horse. Tickets, get your tickets here. Just a mere $50.00 will allow you the privlidge to take this horse on a gallop you will never forget! Rob 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brandonozz 168 #41 Posted November 26, 2014 So the first ticket/ride is for $100 and the second is for $50. Since it's no longer NOS do the prices go down from there? I'm not one to have a tractor I don't plan on using but in this case I'm not sure how you would be able to. Once that smile wears off your face it becomes an expensive, guilty pleasure - like my wife after a big shopping spree! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
