Drydock 3 #1 Posted March 19, 2009 Just brought home 3 Wheel horses, rescued from a local farmers shed, a 605, a 1056, and a L-156 Lawn Ranger. I also picked up a 63/64 round hood and fenders off his scrap pile. Straight, just a little surface rust. Nothing to put it on, but could not let it lay there, maybe someone needs it? the 3 are pretty much complete, the 1056 has an HH100 Tecumseh in it. Not original I believe, but its the good cast Iron engine. Did WH ever use these? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

past7971 0 #4 Posted March 19, 2009 Ohhhhh listen to you Kelly, your probably still grinning over that 854 Sounds like you did real good there Drydock. There still out there just not as easy to find. Hiding on farm huh?--wonder if he had any of the PTO options for running farm equiptment? You might have to go back there and scrounge around a little more. And throwing roundhood parts in the scrap pile!!!!......... :whistle: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drydock 3 #5 Posted March 19, 2009 He had impliments and drives,(Plow, disc and tiller) but was still using those. I got these for $150 each. Lovely dairy farm, with a large collection of machinery sheds and lean-to's, with an impressive pile of sheet metal, old engines, garden tillers, pumps and other detrius accumulated over the years. I saw the frame and unidrive that I believe went the hood and fenders, but both were broke up, half buried in mud and far too rusted to do anything with.

past7971 0 #6 Posted March 19, 2009 What do you mean "broken up, half buried in mud and far too rusted to do anything with" ??? You obviously don't realize the mentality of some of us on this group :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelly 1,028 #7 Posted March 19, 2009 I've draged some home just to save a hub, and foot rest, and still kept the rest because you never know when you need that one piece you tossed out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drydock 3 #8 Posted March 19, 2009 Well, there were a couple of foot rests that could have been saved, but the frame and drive casing were starting to delaminate . . . :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
