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?

Power went out here yesterday around 6pm and just came on again this morning at around 10am. I'm getting ready to head back to the house to take a shower, do my morning ritual, and make some breakfast-lunch.
It was incredibly wild here yesterday and last night. The highest recorded sustained winds in KY according to the news were 75mph in downtown Lexington and here in Mercer county at 73mph. That is not including gusts at other times. As some of you know that live on a hill like I do they were much higher than that here, just not recorded lol. I've been here almost 45 years and never seen anything like it other than hurricanes in NJ when we lived there. Everything here did good minus 1 tree split and uprooted behind the 4 car garage, a few pieces of trim off the house, and a 5 tier 6' tall woven concrete and plaster birdbath in my turnaround that it snapped it off right above the lowest tier.
Anyway,,, I'm off to shower and eat so I can get woke up and going.
Yeah we had lots of damage to our 6 foot wooden fence and me still cleaning up here. We will get new fence installed most likely after derby time.Wind was crazy here too.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
I can't see the forest for the trees.

There's been a ton of things going on around here. The Site was backed up and Forum was updated this morning, it seems to be doing good.
I'm officially taking all of next week off (no phone answering and all) to do some things, I will be around the site + forum though. May have another update in announcements section beginning of next week.

I live near the track and some streets are one way at different times during the day because of all the people coming to the track.
Its a great time here if you like horse racing.
Some people that live closer to the track than me make pretty good money parking cars in there yards.
I think everybody should go to at least one derby in there life like me just to soak it all in and maybe win some money to ...

I think I may be bringing in a little bit of help now that things are calming down a little, it sure will be nice to have some help again and get more things done.
