rjg854 12,250 #8 Posted September 24, 2020 Like the others have said, . That's such a great little, I have two of them. They'll do just anything you could want them to do. Easy to work with or on. Easy on gas and very manuverable. Enjoy 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was this your grandfather's ? Always love to hear of a Wheel Horse being handed don through the family. I have been using a 1055 for snow duty for years. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

8ntruck 7,877 #15 Posted September 25, 2020 Welcome. Lots of good folks here. Chances are somebody here has already broken and fixed whatever happens to your tractor. Don't be shy about asking questions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 16,372 #17 Posted September 25, 2020 I love the Commando 8. One of my favorites. Here is mine after a full restoration in 2012. and here it is taking a nap in 2014. Oops... But no major harm to tractor or rider (me). Glad to have you as a member of the group. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
