Pullstart 59,635 #26 Posted January 31, 2019 to @svir! I’m surprised @PeacemakerJack Hasn’t done up a yellow Wheel Horse yet, it looks pretty good! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PeacemakerJack 10,670 #27 Posted February 1, 2019 Good one Kevin, I’ve never considered it before! The first thing I thought of when I saw this one was, “That’s the ultra rare commercial B-80, purchased and used by rural cities and towns throughout our nation!” Ironically, I believe that the reason IH didn’t end up painting the Cub Cadets Red (their long standing agricultural color) was because of the success and branding that the Wheel Horses had with that color already. So, they chose the industrial yellow that they used on their commercial machines instead. Great attention to detail and welcome to the finest forum on the planet! If this is your only , don’t spend any time looking around this site! These tractors are more addictive than potato chips...almost no one can have just one. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LengerichKA88 1,881 #28 Posted February 1, 2019 I have to say, when I read “yellow” I didn’t think I was going to like it, but that actually looks really good. The first thing I thought of though wasn’t a Cub Cadet, but a Tonka Truck 😂. Would make for some cool decals haha. Welcome to Red Square! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

svir 17 #30 Posted February 7, 2019 Hi all. I've got a brief update. Got the belt in and installed it. Then I noticed that the gas tank is leaking, again. You can say that the joy was short lived! I've tried to fix this tank now several times, but it might be a time to let this old part go. I'll be going to a local fabricator to see how much it'll be to make me an aluminum unit. Otherwise, managed some time to change the transaxle oil and redo some wiring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Owned by Granby Massachusetts telephone. It was however, red. Ok sort of. More rust really... 59 minutes ago, svir said: gas tank I changed mine to a metal tank from an older Briggs engine. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lee1977 6,214 #32 Posted February 9, 2019 A good used gas tank should not be hard to find. I'm sure A-Z Tractor down in our vendor section will have one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
