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.

Looks like most of the metal work is done for now, there will be a little more done after it's all blasted cause you see new things once the paint is gone. :)


On to the wiring. We move pretty fast Brian, we have a system that works really well, especially when the phone and shop stays quiet. :rolling

Grandpa said there is no rust because it never saw a drop of rain and he only washed under the deck haha.

Grandpa was really good to that tractor! :thumb1


Got all of the small accent pieces blasted and painted today, rebuilt the headlamp assy, and got it most of it all rewired.

The only things left to blast are the wheels and hood, they will be blasted tomorrow morning. :)

Just got finished painting the undersides of some of the sheet metal, some red pieces that were up against black that had to be done separately, and the black on the engine + tractor. Will be painting the red on the frame in the morning while Sandra is finishing up the blasting. We will probably paint the wheels after lunch and get them back on there.

If the sheet metal is all fixed and looks good tomorrow, we will finish up the painting tomorrow late afternoon. :yes
