  1. What more could you ask for in a hobby than to have mates that will drive hundreds of miles to help a fellow enthusiast out of a spot of bother . That's the best part of being in this hobby
  2. That reminds me. , I must sort mine out £191 for 7 tractors , good deal Paul
  3. Awesome description Richard , good to have you back , My stater squeals on starting , I guess that it needs a refurb like you have shown. Fancy another one to do Neil
  4. Simon Cole , is a guy from blandford forum that has had a number of Wheelhorse tractors & a few other types of garden tractor but I think he is more into classic minis now
  5. wow Chris that is awesome. What a great project to get your teeth into. I bet you were pretty excited waiting for her to arrive home. Great find

  12. She's a real beauty Charlie , good for another 30 years , when you will be in your 50s I see she is getting some admiring looks from the other horse looking over the fence , Is that your horse ?
  13. Have you got any more pics,? Like most wheelhorse parts they are interchangeable , or if rare you could try the U.S. ebay or post a wanted add on Redsquare .

    Old Wheel Horse

    That's is a Wheelhorse lawn ranger , there are a few guys here on Mom that own those. Great little lawn tractors and quite popular. That particular one looks to be in good shape , if it were closer I would buy it If your friend has one similar to this one below , if it is a 1961 with a Lauson engine I would guess that it is a suburban 441 which are really desirable tractors
  16. I don't know many people with only one horse , congrats on winning the lawn Rangers Have fun
  17. Some real nice stationary engines there, love to see the various pumps & engines
  18. Those wheel arches look just right Ian, is there room to attach a tool box on the back?
  19. Going by the angle of the pics Chris , the frame looks to be a short frame blade for short frame tractors , which would coincide with the engine that you got as the dyno start engines were only on the short frame tractors '1966 to 1968 . If that is the case then I would say it's an extremely rare dozer . Great find mate
  20. Great find chris , the blade looks in great condition ,is the blade for a short frame tractor?
  21. Looks like it has hardly been used
  22. Nigel. This time I'm gonna take you up on your offer , I will get you some pics of the one that I want doing , i will be going to Essex in a few weeks and I will bring it too you .
  23. Ah ,so you bought that engine then , I was looking at that one too , some good spares on the engine.
  24. Charlie , Yes that guy bought it from me & he also bought the commando 8 from me , I didnt realise it was 1 of 5 demo models . Thank you for telling me that , I regret selling it even more now This pic was taken in 1958 at a horticultural show in Oxfordshire promoting the new wheelhorse RJ 58 I wonder if it was my old one . I know of 3 original RJs that still survive .
