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!! 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCM 10,040 #31 Posted December 3, 2018 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! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
