Deadguy 861 #1 Posted September 3, 2017 Two more followed us home again. One is a 654 and the other appears to be a 551. The 654 runs cuts and drives, but needs throttle and choke cables, ignition switch, battery, and of course, axle seals. The 551 has the complete deck and even the belt guard, but was bundled with an H60 that was pulled off a snow blower, and is missing the carburetor. The pair set us back $175. I hope we didn't get taken... 11 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Finding an engine that will work is easy, but finding the correct one is probably close to impossible. 32 minutes ago, prondzy said: im not a tecky guy but those are some nice horses i would love to have! Yeah, I got them in spite of the Teckys, not because of them! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 551 is definitely a project, but the 654 only needs a few small parts and then will be ready to start earning its keep! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blondeflutterby 45 #14 Posted September 3, 2017 My Mom asked if Deadguy and I are addicted to tractors. I told her no, but we are on our way to pick up another horse now. We might have a slight addiction, but it's a great one to have! 2 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 37,147 #15 Posted September 3, 2017 Time to get you both a couple of these... will succinctly, sum up the whole story. http://www.redoyourhorse.com/wheel-horse-horse-a-holic-decal/ 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blondeflutterby 45 #16 Posted September 3, 2017 (edited) Yet another one to follow us home. 312H with only 456 hours, 50" belly blade, belly mount cultivator set, 42" side discharge deck, and snowblower. Great condition. Makes it well worth the 460 mile round trip to get it. Edited September 3, 2017 by Blondeflutterby 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Henry wanted you to know that he can run a grader too. But seriously, I can't submit all of Henry's Wheel Horse pictures to the calendar, or there would be serious danger of having to rename it to the 2018 Red Square Henry Calendar! 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
