R. L. Addison 299 #1 Posted August 12, 2017 Craigs List has a Springfield Il. listing for what must be the earliest Wheel Horse I have ever seen, or maybe it is mislabeled. Wish I knew how to put that picture on here, and also wish I had the money to buy it. It has a flat hood, and from what I can tell it has a B & S engine on it. I have never seen anything like it, and it has my curiosity very much aroused. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cafoose 3,324 #3 Posted August 12, 2017 (edited) Is this it? Ad says "Motor is free and has compression. Doesn't run and needs work. $100 firm or trade for gokart running or not." Edited August 12, 2017 by cafoose 4 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

R. L. Addison 299 #7 Posted August 12, 2017 I knew it's something like I have never seen, and I am not that familiar with the "old stuff". Asante Sana. That is the one I had seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris G 3,296 #13 Posted August 12, 2017 I think it's kinda cool. If I was closer I'd buy it. Get it running and keep it the way it is. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am thinking like a small V twin with straight pipes. And flames on the hood. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
