Maxwell-8 4,367 #3 Posted November 9, 2021 Did Wheel Horse had a secondhandsprogram you see lots of car-brands have now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thomasfouraker 10 #4 Posted November 9, 2021 It’s off what I believe to be an 18 Automatic, 1973 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wallfish 18,215 #5 Posted November 10, 2021 Just guessing but maybe dealers re-selling trade ins of used tractors could re-tag them??? Especially if it was originally sold by a different dealer? Maybe? Definitely an interesting tag Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,512 #6 Posted November 10, 2021 Always figured that was on a model that stayed at the plant for R&D. The tractor was a new model to them at that time. Click on the fuzzy picture in the link. Here was another one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Achto 29,413 #7 Posted November 10, 2021 Also looks like the number above it was engraved by hand with an engraving tool. Would really like to know the true story behind it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would really like to know the true story behind it. I wondered about that too. I'm fairly new to the Wheelhorse game but that's not something I remember seeing yet. Perhaps a Demo? Did they have those? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thomasfouraker 10 #9 Posted November 10, 2021 I will try to clean it up a little bit today and see if I can read it better. A demo model sounds feasible, then perhaps engraved once sold. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thomasfouraker 10 #10 Posted November 10, 2021 I found this other picture of a similar tag with hand engraving. This was on an older post found here: 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
