The big haul of the week

[J beal]

After of weeks of back and forth negotiations i was finally able to bring home my new gems the fenders on the Jacobson are completely rotten so I'll have to search for some new ones and the wheel horse wasn't what i was looking for but my 6 year old son likes it so its a win win I'm assuming its a lawn ranger ? The bolens ride master is sweet and the simplicity looks ok too all in all it was a good day

Nice haul.
Very varied pick. Someone's barn or a collector?

 

[J beal]

Part of Someones grandfather's collection he probably has 300 vintage mopeds and mini bikes I'm hoping to go back soon

Looks like you did ok, yeah it's a lawn ranger looking at it now, was that same one in the other pics? this should keep you busy for awhile. the 725 is a nice looking machine

 

[J beal]

Yeah these are the ones from the pictures and yeah if I ever get out of the doghouse I'll have plenty to keep me busy I was really hoping it was a full sized wheel horse like yours the search continues

 

[jabelman]

important thing is your kids are involved. my boys have a alot of fun the tractors, now they ride the quads more. just curious what area are you from if I see any wheelhorse stuff for sale

 

[J beal]

@jabelman from southern Maine I'd love to have one like yours and yes definitely happy my boy loves them as much as I do I'll keep him involved as long as I can until cars and girls take over

 

[jabelman]

might want to check redsquare the wheelhorse forum site, there is a bunch of Maine members on it, round hoods dont seem to common up there might have to drop south.
maine is nice place, I have family there on the southern part, Bridgton area

 

[J beal]

Bridgeton is beautiful you should come visit them and bring me up one of your gems ha ha ha

That is a 1962 Lawn Ranger with the original front wheel which you do not see often.

 

[J beal]

@jimt1971 thanks for the info how did u pin point the date I dont know much it

 

[jimt1971]

The 1962 Lawn Rangers had hard front tires that for some reason there was a recall and most were replaced with regular tube type tires.
