NOS Wheel Horses
 
I know this is off topic but this summer I went to a meet and greet for Wheel Horse forum members and this gentleman had 2 NOS Wheel Horses from 1972. They have never had gas in them or a battery attached. It was amazing to see something new from 1972.

He is a pretty big collector!

Man those are nice. I've often thought of putting up some small pallet racking in my garage to go 2 high. I really like the wheel horses too, That's cool, thanks for sharing.

That is an impressive collection, I don't care what brand it is. :beerchug:

Hard to imagine that someone bought 2 tractors in '72 with the intent of never using them, with the costs like it was and tight times for everyone. There is a man with some insight into the future. Glad you shared the pics and had a chance to meet such a nice fellow collector!

This may be those tractors, I believe he bought three of them at an auction and he sold the third one after someone offered him an obscene amount of money for it.

He has at least a half dozen more that were not in the picture. He does them all in a small two car garage and the other shop is just do store and display them!

Super nice gentleman and his wife too.

Here is my 1277 that I bought last year with no intention of keeping the tractor, but after using it awhile I have come to like it. They have some great features but the steering is not up to heavy loader use.

Gonna move the loader over to a 149 as soon as I can get around to working on the 149, but would like to restore the 1277.
