First outing/show for my 854 and RJ58

First outing/show for my 854 and RJ58 was created by motor12
Loaded the pickup and trailer and heading to Fredericksburg,TX Saturday morning for their annual Tractor & engine show. I am betting I will have the only Wheel Horse tractors on site. After loading the RJ58 in the pick up today I thought I would top off the gas tank in the pick up. When I pulled up to the pumps I had people coming over to look at the wheel horse and most comments were what is it, I love it ,I want one. No one had seen one before. Should be interesting at the show Saturday. Leaving my engines at home, only showing the Wheel Horses. I'll post photos Monday

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

Well besides my two wheel horses there was one other, a nice Lawn ranger. As expected everyone loved the RJ and 854. Many parents wanted pictures of their kids on the tractors and lots wanted to take the RJ home. I did meet one fella who is a wheel horse collector who has one from the 70s. I gave him info on this site maybe he will chime in and be a regular. Not to many photos as I was pretty much all there was.
