Gday Members, I’m now selling my favorite WheelHorse WorkHorses, with a heavy heart. These were the first of the WheelHorse tractors I had gotten that turned me onto what a great machine they were.
Anyways…although I’m not sure of the years, due to faded tags, they are True WorkHorses, so 82-84 vintage? Both are the white ones. First up is a GT1100, Briggs 11hp, 8 speed. Has chains on rear. Had a new carb on it when I bought it, although I suspect that it’s not the exact unit, since the choke is not hooked up. I manually activated the choke to start. Been sitting, so I will clean fuel system and replace battery. The second is a GT1142, 8 hp Briggs, 8 speed. Currently has a lightly used 42” Replacement Toro Deck. I bought this from the original owners daughter, who blew the engine on it after she took up mowing duties after the death of her father. So I sourced a replacement engine, replaced carb and battery. 42” Deck was only 1 year old when I bought it 6 years ago. Shows very little use. I cut with it 1 time after I got it running. Ran / Cut great. But it’s been in storage since. Tires were original and I noticed 1 was low last week after sitting. Filled it up and been fine since. Battery will be replaced if necessary. I’m looking for $1100/BRO. I still have a couple sets of weights and chains available, as well as other decks and various parts that I’m liquidating. The whole shop, tools and equipment is going too.
Thanx, Jay
