peter lena 9,311 #2 Posted July 28, 2020 neglected horses are ugly, but the opportunity to part them out or make one into a runner is up to you. if you have a ton of stuff going on , probably the easiest way out will be the most appealing , pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redneckdavis 308 #3 Posted July 28, 2020 And that is why I do my best work in the dark. . What is it with you Wheelhorse guys and taking tires off anyway. My junker came with 3 tires. Where do all these tires go??? And for $300. I'd be in your same boat. Well done 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JAinVA 4,638 #9 Posted July 28, 2020 The mower deck on the 416 had me puzzled when I first got it off the machine.All the mounting hardware had surface rust and patina.When i got the deck cleaned up I realized that it recently had a new deck shell installed.The blades have not been resharpened and still have most of their paint as does the bottom of deck. 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stepney 2,354 #14 Posted July 29, 2020 Projects indeed but the parts far out-value the cost of acquisition IMHO.. Doing better than my poor old 516, though! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 60,356 #15 Posted July 29, 2020 The thing I find totally amazing is that all three have good tail lights! Everything I get has busted tail lights, previous owners must have never backed up. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wish I had a whole picture of it, but that is indeed a Maytag 72d twin on a small White Mountain Freezer ice cream rig. Got tired of footing it over and the WH is nifty for belting over all sorts of stubborn equipment 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
