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.

More painting! At least it's almost over lol. Got the front end painted and now drying. Also painted the rear hitch and pivot pin for the front axle. Didn't get a pic but the horse is now sitting on her own back legs. Also painted the front rims and got the tires mounted. Will be taking each wheel off one at a time, mask the tire and wet sand and recoat the rims probably next friday or saturday. The pictures are on my phone so will post right after this with the pictures.

Ughhh. Well this is how my tractor looks now. Had to repaint the frame because it came out pink. Having the same problem Geno is having. Painted it last night will be checking it after work today and see if it’s reds or pink.

After all the issues with the paint I got annoyed with the tractor. After a long break I’m back into it. Got a buffer and started buffing the tractor. Here’s the hood. Not quite dont but good enough for tonight. Also sent the rims off to be powder coated because I was tired of dealing with paint and they had a price I couldn’t refuse.

Got the rims back from powder coating. First time it’s been sitting on all four rims for the whole summer.
