jusjeepn 59 #12 Posted December 29, 2008 Thanks for all the comp's on the tractor and my wife!! She is one great woman. The story goes like this. A buddy of mine has owned this for several years. He bought it new/used from the local wheel horse dealer. The dealer, which is now closed, purchased this for himself and never intended to sell it. He drove it around town to show it off and to advertise his business. He eventually fell ill and passed away and left his business to his son. Well his son had no intentions of keeping this beauty and that is how my buddy purchased it with just 90 hours on it. My buddy actually used this to mow his grass for 2 years. He claims he quit using it and bought another tractor because he was tired of detailing it after every use. Since then it has been sitting in his garage next to his Softail Harley for around 6 years. He'd start it and run it around the yard every so often just to make sure everything was still in good shape. I had called him over the summer so I could get some pics to post on here and he told me when he got it out again he'd call. Well last week while I was woking the ice storm in Ft Wayne he called and asked if I wanted to get some pics because he was thinking about selling it. I asked about a price and he gave me two prices, one for me and one for anyone else. The price he shot me was to good to be true. I talked it over with the wife and she was pretty adament about not getting it because we've been paying off medical bills from my heart cath and saving for a new house. Well after a few days of me sulking around the house she told me to go ahead and get it. MY WIFE ROCKS!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jusjeepn 59 #22 Posted December 31, 2008 Thanks again guys for all the comps. Beast owner, those are factory rims and all the chrome goodies are all factory. The LSE (Limited Special Edition) was only produced in a limited quanity (225, possibly 226). Very rare, highly sought after. I am just very fortunate to be able to care for this one for a short time (the rest of my life). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
