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.
What's everybody doing?

I was reading something real interesting this morning that really caught my attention. They were talking about common cold remedies and how the body produces T cells to fight it naturally. They want to play down that alley and modify T cells now...
If anyone has ever watched the Resident Evil Movies (which are awesome) all of that mayhem was created by the Umbrella Corporation playing with T cells, it even mentions the T cell virus throughout all the movies. Maybe something like that is what's coming because every time I turn around I've been telling peeps since all this started I've seen all of this stuff in Sci-Fi movies all my life so I know where it's headed...

One of my fav tools I've had for about 30+ years in the last pic, and I think one of the best bearing packers ever made. It has done literally thousands and thousands of bearings over the years.

The Gemini used to be in the bench until a battery exploded in there about 20 years ago so I just put the Rockford in there. 20 years (yes 20 years) of needing to fix that amp has me thinking more and more about getting my priorities a little more in order now... One evening last month I got it back out, soaked it in baking soda (it neutralizes battery acid) and washed it out with hot water, let it dry out for a week and it was back up and running again. Saying they don't make things like they used to is a real understatement... It's been sitting on the bench running for the past 3 weeks or so, so today is the day for tidying things back up, getting things hooked back up right that were patched or bypassed for troubleshooting it, and getting it all back together so I have room to work there again.
Jim Fosgate was a smart guy that started Rockford Fosgate that I had a pleasure to know back in the day. He was one of those self taught repair guys that invented the car amplifier in 1973, invented and received an Emmy Award in 2003 for the development of surround sound for tv, he ran Fosgate Laboratories and lead the team that created Dolby Pro Logic II among other things. He did a lot of things not many peeps have common knowledge about that should be on Wiki but no one has put them on there. Some more on him here - Wiki on Jim Fosgate
More here
More here including his Museum pics
I was just thinking how blessed I am to have known people like him, Bernie Boland and Sam Taylor (Orion founders) Frank and his son Mark Pyle (Pyle Driver), Paul Klipsch (Klipsch Speakers and inventor of the Horn for speakers) Helmut Stieglitz (Founder and designer of HiFonics) and many many others who were pioneers in the audio and electronics fields, they are and were real inventors much like Cecil Pond.
