Nice looking shoebox. One of the guys in IN I've bought a few horses from has 3 of them unrestored in his garage. About 30 WH too.

Yeah I agree. His horses are in variouse stages of restoration. He used to work as a GM master mechanic. So he's got all kinds of cool parts stashed away here and there. More wheel horse parts than I could ever imagine trying to look through too, and I love digging through parts :D

Awesome - very, well done restoration job. The classic '57 Chevys are tough to beat as far as style and good looks go. Nicely done. :D

Never thought about takeing a Wheel Horse to a car show or cruise in.

Bill Peirson here on the site has an wrote an ariticle in the Lawn & Garden Collector mag about it.

Sounds like his was a hit!

Hmmmm. I never thought of that either. Might start a trend. I'm sure it atleast would start some good conversations.

A guy "in town" has a store/installation shop for off-road accessories, etc. called Truck Stuff and More. Every summer he rents a field from the Milesburg American Legion and does a show called Your Rides. He's the fellow that invited my son Nick to bring his chopper bicycle and show it too. That's where the first newspaper interviewed Nick and then ran a photo of him and his chopper. :(

Barry, the owner of TS&M, already told me I could put some of my tractors in the show. He said "they're YOUR RIDES, aren't they?". Maybe I'll take him up on it this summer. :D :P

You wouldn't believe HOW MANY people walked up to it at the NAMA show, cocked their heads, and said "I didn't know Wheel Horse ever made one of THESE" :D
