Good evening.
                      Just thought i'd share a few photos of the latest attachment for the Wheelhorse RJ. I believe it's a CBR-32. Its a bit of a squeeze but does clear everything although the snow blade bracket will have to be removed to allow it to lift fully.
 
My children thought it was ok but were more thrilled wth the trailer

Hello to all.
 
                I know some of you have seen this before, sorry. Another restoration waiting to be done, an RJ58 with the possibility of plough & front blade in the future.

Thanks Paul,
                    It may have to sit in the corner whilst i get work & some already started stationary engine restorations finished. For me it's more about it's size & looks than rarity especially if my children can take an interest from it

A couple of quick pictures of the tractors where they were parked up after the move to Norfolk. Slowly moving them elsewhere being towed by my 7 year old lad, the demon Gator driver

Absolutely, that's because they are Bolens
 
Two, maybe three have lots of potential. They are the two funky coloured ones (blue and yellow) and a white one with no
hood. The others have potential but will need a fully and complete restoration and a couple are parts only. All have
something seized. As I start to get them organised I will post some post some detailed pictures.
 
The Bolens we brought back with all the Wheelhorse's, I put into my workshop as it was getting too late on Sunday to think
of somewhere else to put it. My workshop now has a very unpleasant smell, not sure if that has anything to do with the rats
nest we found under the tractor or if one of those Wheelhorse's peed on it in fright, thinking it was going to get a Glasgow
handshake during the journey. The cast front on that tractor could do a lot of harm
 
You have to admit that in the one before last picture that Bolens looks fantastic compared to all that red stuff
 
Thanks for posting the pictures Alan. You did a great job of the pictures and masked the horrible weather we had on Friday
and the rain on Sunday.

Evening All,
                     Having acquired the front blade for the RJ at the weekend i thought i'd put up a few photos of it more or less complete. The rear plough, which is a Barford Atom item, is the one that was used on the RJ by the previous owner; disc to be found.
 
When the blade arrived home my 5 year old son was chuffed to bits; jumping around with excitement. His 2 year old sister however didn't know what the fuss was all about but joined in jumping anyway.
 
I'll take it to a couple of shows as is before restoration starts although i  don't want to end up with it in bits if i need it in any snow

Afternoon,
              I believe the engine was made on 14th June 1978 so possibly a 78 machine being midway through the year?
 
Philip

Blimey! I didn't want to cause a riot.  Only kidding. I never realized there were so many differences & models. Thank You to you all.
 
If i come across anything fancy i'll inform accordingly. I know i keep a late light green Bolens (Briggs V twin) going for a customer but can't think of anything older around at the mo. It was just in case.
p.s i think i heard mention of a Bolens with loader late last year but i can't be sure. I'll have to remember where i heard it.
 
Night Night

I wouldn't mind leaving as is but it's the wrong colour. Also i've got stationary engines in oily rag condition so fancied something shiny. I'll see what opinion is nearer the time. 

Hello Paul,
                  Thank you for the welcome. When i first found the Wheelhorse i thought yourself or showman would know more about it than i.
I'm normally working on later machinery with maybe a Raider 12 occasionally coming in for a "get going" being the oldest machine.
