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.

I got back home around 3 pm, kissed the wife, petted the dogs, cleaned off the mud and crashed out on the couch suffering from what felt like a combination of hypothermia and jet lag. :faint What a hoot!

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.

Thanks Nappy. If it does rain here which is usually not the case that time of year here, we have over 10K square feet of barns under roof connected to the main barn and a lot more than that within 50 feet. We can even unload and display tractors under roof, and the concession trailers can be set up in the shop. We have prepared for any type of weather just in case. Best of all it will be very warm here even if it does rain. :smile2

Yeah I am looking forward to going also......been a wheelhorse owner since 85 but never been to a show and didn't even know they had any... :helloFewMoreMiles wrote: :cool I'm excited at the potential of being able to make it to Geno and Sandra's Wheel Horse show this year. I am rarely at home on weekends, and since I didn't make Mentone...it will actually be my first official Wheel Horse tractor event. That's pretty nice :dance3

No pictures either, very busy meeting people, and new people, talking, and selling.
I got there Friday evening and had the canopy & tables setup by 9:00pm, only a
very light rain then. Slept in the jeep, woke up about 7am and probably 12 pickups
with big trailers arrived during the night, silently . . . must have been 60 sellers all
set up by 9am. Seemed like everyone was busy all morning, started a light rain about
8am and it rained and kept raining all day, sometimes very light, sometimes so-so, I
measured about 1/2" total. Dreary day but lots to see and buy, I felt prices were very
reasonable and mosts sellers would dicker. Many sellers started leaving about 1pm
and the crowds slowed way down then, unhappy about the rain but sales were OK,
it's the people and contacts that made it really worthwhile.
Nice bonfire Friday evening. Excellent and large site, a huge field, very easy to find,
well marked with lots of directional signs.
Gene & Ken even had rolls and coffee ready very early in the morning, and then a
nice lunch (hot dogs, hamburgs, drinks, etc.) in late morning, downtown was only
1/2 mile away.
A very nice get together, lots of tractors and parts, lots of 'regulars' and it seemed
to me that there were a lot of new, never-been-to-a-Wheel Horse-show-before people.
Great to meet you Major, hope to make August Portland Show (Wed, Thur & Fri only).
Great Job Gene & Ken:
