ClassicTractorProfessor 5,371 #1 Posted July 25, 2016 Friend of mine came into the coffee shop this morning and asked me if I had $100. I asked him what for and he said he found me another Wheel Horse. Not sure on the model...my friend bought it brand new with a tiller on it in the mid 70s. He then traded it to another friend about 10 yrs ago, who has decided he wants to get rid of it. Hasn't ran in three or four years but Harry said it was running good when he parked it. I'll be anxious to get over there this week and see what it is and bring her home, will post more details as well as pictures when I get her home. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ClassicTractorProfessor 5,371 #3 Posted July 25, 2016 Yep tiller goes with it too...and Ray thought Harry might even let it go a bit cheaper so we will see Just wish the old man could remember what model it was...the suspense of finding out is killing me lol 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

953 nut 60,136 #6 Posted July 25, 2016 @Professor1990, what ever happened to the notion that Wheel Horses were hard to come by in Oklahoma? Seems like you trip over one every time you step out the door. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems like you trip over one every time you step out the door. I've known about this one and its whereabouts for a while now...just took us a while to get ahold of him and get it bought...but as far as CL listings they are hard to find I've found maybe three since the bug bit me. But I am getting lucky and stumbling across one every now and then 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ohiofarmer 3,372 #9 Posted July 26, 2016 My guess would be at least a 10 horsepower Kohler based on the fact that a tiller was bought with it when purchased. Get the popcorn................ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All my friend can remember about his old tractor is that it is a Wheel Horse and it does have a tiller with it. Talked to him again this morning and it will probably be first part of next week before we can go pick it up...was wanting to this weekend but it's his anniversary so he will be out of town...sorry about the wait but y'all will be the first to know what it turns out to be when I get her home. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TDF5G 2,073 #11 Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) Good luck with your latest WH excursion. Hope it works out so you can bring it home. And remember, when you do get it home P.S. I've got a 310-8 waiting for me to go fetch when me and the owner can get our schedules in line. Edited July 26, 2016 by TDF5G 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ClassicTractorProfessor 5,371 #13 Posted July 31, 2016 Hoping to be able to get the new tractor picked up somewhere around either Tuesday or Wednesday of this week...this waiting is about to kill me lol I'm ready to get her home and hear her run again. Ray did tell me if he remembered correctly it was somewhere around a 16hp but only time will tell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
