Big Sale Has Started - UPDATED 07-31-25 (01 Apr 2025)
As some of you know my dad passed away 2 months ago today, on May 31, 2025. I posted it in the Members Only section when it happened. Thanks to all of you who have offered kind words on the forum, with phone calls, and visits in person during this time.
The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. I don't have the manpower, or the desire to do a big event like originally planned, I just need to sell a lot of parts that are taking up too much space here. I have been told and believe we are overloaded with Wheel Horse parts like no one has ever seen. Peeps have already been coming in from different parts of the country and buying a lot of stuff due to seeing the sale page, and seeing we are the only Wheel Horse only business in the USA that does things on the scale we do. The sale will continue for awhile until I free up some more space but you may not want to wait too long as things are being sold every day and there are limits to how many of certain parts will be sold.
As it says on the page it is still under construction and the page isn't finished yet. I've had a ton of calls for parts and the Big Sale Page may help answer some questions about what is here before peeps call. I hope that page is also clear that we DO NOT SHIP anything... This is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.

Also, if anyone puts the newer steps on the older tractors and they don't sit on the rods right, the front and rear rods on the newer ones are a little shorter so the rods on the older ones have to be cut down just a little. Past suppertime now, more tomorrow if it doesn't get to wild around here.

Panels are decaled and on, steps, rear fender pan, and all the panels are on, then I got out the buffer and decided to buff the rear fender and hood. Needless to say when you see the pics I've never had one clean up this good so it will prob just leave this one all original.

The quickest and best way to get it fixed was to stack it. It was time to grab a piece of flat stock, fire up the iron worker, make a new heavier flange, and weld a heavy double wall pipe to it for a stack.

It's been run for 15 mins to heat it up and change the oil, time to sneak out and mow a little now while she drains and everything is quiet...

The hole on the right rear in the first pic isn't rust, it's solid as new, it was dirt blasted there over many years of mowing mole hills, dang moles...
The last pic is after mowing all the hills and banks, it did great job and there is now a new family Wheel Horse here at home.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
I can't see the forest for the trees.

Nothing blows snow like a 2 stage on a 520 so I will have to keep one 520 worker for the 2 stage blower, it will be the one that is in pics here and there with the cab on it but the engine is already toast. Once the engine is replaced with something else and the wiring redone it will be a good trouble free tractor, the tractor also is in like new condition body and paint wise so it's worth putting the funds into it.
