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.

Blasting is all done, tomorrow is painting day. :thumb1

It never ceases to amaze me how well the paint holds up on 55+ year old wheels.

Getting some holes blocked off and doing the final finishing on what will be red. :thumb1

Running a little behind on the engine, had to order another crankshaft for it, (Mr Kohler) Big John and I just weren't happy with what we had, it had to go .012 over to make it right so it's getting replaced.

All of the sheet metal will be ready for paint today. After the obvious was dollied out it was all covered with black primer then gone over with a DA with 180 grit to find any other major flaws I missed. A few coats of 3M Acryl spot putty in a few places did the trick and will hold and flex. It won't be a Lamborghini but it will be nice. :jump1
