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.

Most of this week has been full of car work again, why do the few customers I kept all break at once? :doh


This afternoon is the first time I've had a chance to work on a tractor all week and it feels good! :woo It's time for the little 314-8.


Someone had painted it up like the General Lee with the flag on the hood and all. The PO painted it back red. Here's what she looked like to start with. :)

Over 2 full days of mechanic work on this one. Nothing at all electrical worked, all of the safety switch ends were cut out, and the clutch switch + seat switch were gone. There was also plenty of fancy cutting and bypass wiring that we had to completely redo. We did have all of the pigtails and parts here to get it put back the way it belonged along with a new ignition switch, but what a time eater finding it all and sorting through the wiring mess...

Sandra blasted it last week and I got everything prepped and paint on the undersides this afternoon. Also just got done with the engine and red on the frame. :) Still need to strip and paint the tower black, got in too big of a hurry and missed it.

That pic was from 6-20 when we first got it. Had to put valve cover gaskets on it, a wheel bearing, and remove a few little dents. :)


Thanks for the nice comments guys. Gonna paint the hood this morning after Sandra gets the black taped up and try to get some assembly time today. :woo
