Sorry. It will be in a warehouse full of tractors in Peoria Illinois 

 

I understand if you don't want to haul it all the way to Penn. but by chance would you be willing to haul it up to "Garden Tractor Daze" in Portage WI.? They are featuring Wheel Horse next year, which means we will have a roof over our exhibits & it would great to see that beautiful tractor there.

 

Super job on the resto!!

I remember new blackhoods at a local dealership when I was younger,but I have never seen  a C-195   until I was on Redsquare lurking before I was a member. This is one beautiful Wheelhorse and I can appreciate all your hard work and determination. GREAT JOB!

Thanks for the message. This tractor is one of my customers but I might be able to pull that one and another one up there. Give me the date on it

At least $1500 if everything there, maybe more depending the market in your area.

Jim got you on the loader price. That Brinly CAT 0 plow in the back ground is worth a few hundred.

 That's a nice tractor you got.tear it all the away down get it sandblasted  use good PPG paint probably take you six months to do it but it will look nice when you'r done. Probably cost you $2000 or $2500 in parts and supplies

I would like to compare it to mine.

Please email to bmiller0457@gmail.com
