Sparky-(Admin) 19,612 #3 Posted June 14, 2019 Free is the best price! It’s not a 1975 machine tho. Find the model number tag and we’ll tell you what year tractor you really have. Probably a 1970-1972. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like WH seat pads on a custom frame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZXT 2,394 #9 Posted June 14, 2019 Looks like a plastic chair that someone screwed the seat pads to.. but hey, it works! Good looking tractor and an even better price! Is this your first Horse? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I only posted because I have a friend that can't bare to sell anything and I knew he would search CL to see if I did ....lol and he did. Going to have a look at it this weekend and see if I want to mess with it. I'm more into motorcycles ... but I couldn't pass this up I posted it on FB as well over 600 views since this morning... probably a bunch of wheel horse cultist ? seems to be a lot of people love them.

Pullstart 59,839 #13 Posted June 14, 2019 Man, if you guys aren’t into it I understand. Motorcycles and tractors are very different animals. I like ‘em both. But if it’s free and one owner, someone really cared for this thing for a very long time. Pass it on to someone who’ll appreciate and care for it like the original owner. It just saddened me to see your excitement over a free tractor, then to find it posted for profit some hours later. Here’s a few of our bikes and tractors, they’ve all got a unique personality Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

i96rcr 20 #15 Posted June 14, 2019 cool bikes.. we'll see ...I really don't need more things to work on, over the years I have learned or forced myself to not be attached to anything , . I buy vintage bikes when I find ones I know I can ride a bit and hopefully break even and then on to the next. I have had so many cool cars and bikes that I wish I kept... but poor people have to sell this to get that ..lol they were going to just scrap the wheel horse... so I grabbed it. couple of my vintage bikes...and my current road weapon. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
