- In Part 1 of Slippers' Wheel Horse RJ58 Restoration, we go over how he acquired this tractor and what he plans on doing to it to restore it. We hit a snag and were surprised to learn that the original owner of this mower was hot for it and wanted it back. See how it all plays out here and what sort of deal is worked out in order to make this restoration possible. And as Slippers always says... There's Your Supper!!

For some reason TH-cam hasn’t put this video up on my subscriptions list I had to check taryls channel to find it and yes I’m still subscribed with notifications
Same here :/
Me too! I had to search for it.
Yuppers
Yup same here. Slippers fault
Me too
You are a good mechanic
Glad I checked his channel for a new video The little bell did not notify me
I had to look this video up on his channel too TH-cam hasn’t put it on my subscriptions list yet
@@scrotiemcbogerballs8286 Same here still not on my Subs list
Nothing here either. Need to go through the whole sub process.
I can't believe the Slippers spin-off has already had a spin-off
That was a great show of heart slippers,this is why I will always be subscribed to Taryl,you guys care about people.
I agree 100 percent !
Hey you did great with hooking him up with the old RJ. Glad to see it go to him,by the way this is Duane.
I don't know why everyone thinks slippers is old, he doesn't look a day over 45! You did a nice thing trading tractors with that guy!
@@melmen2379 He is always in character. He is on clothing and coffee cups and bobbleheads.... and you are on?
He went to Old Island
His age has been mentioned in at least one video. IIRC, it's over 80.
Truly a kind and generous act Slippers reuniting that man with his long lost love. Podunk4Life!
What a nice gentleman. Gave u a good deal didn't give u the slip..
Nice young man. Great to hear about a father son working w each other
Slip man does the right thing and returned the tractor to it's rightful owner. And there's your good deed for the year.
👉🍝
😇💯💪
Brilliant people love the video ♥️👁️👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
It’s amazing how that guy actually remembered everything that his mower had on it. I’m liable to forget my own name half the time! Slippers is awesome and a kind guy! Taryl and friends? You guys are A ok in my book! Keep up the great work
Funny thing about my own memory, after 3 strokes here my short term is just toast, my long term is still in tact so I can remember all this crazy little stuff too. Every tiny detail of my 60yrs. Now wth I just had for breakfast today, not a damn clue buddy!..lol
Its the strangest thing....
A good set of bits are worth their weight in gold
I don't know if Slippers realizes this but he has that cool Clint Eastwood coo in his voice. I keep waiting for them catchphrases or Clyde to step into frame with mom's oreo cookies in hand. Very entertaining! He just needs the growl and to say everything slow and under his breath. Oh, and maybe some spurs too. At home, you all ought to Clint movie nights on weekends... Enjoyed every minute. Oh lord he said, Uncle Pat is George C. Scott family too?
Looking forward to a video on that mint-looking Honda ST90 in the background.
Heat quench, Air hammer, 3x punch, drill, lub and bad language works everytime.
Very cool Slip.
Totally Awesome Trading The Tractor To The Kid. Good Job
awkward start but two restos for the price of one is a bonus
One of them had a deck on it super bonus.
man that went weal. love your banter . Slippers you ma want to put wealey bars on that tractor .
Using that acetylene torch right next to a gas can. Classic! Good gosh I love it.
I was thinking the same thing , waited for the big heat and fire trucks .
Taryl reminds me of my dad. Bitch when I needed help, but jumped right in to help. Then the clean up stuff. Gotta love those type of fellas😂
Great Video guys!
Wow not seen a running HD 90 in decades. Too Cool!
I use Cobalt bits to drill out stubborn pins, works quite well.
Man all the good stuff ended up in the northern part of the Hoosier state. I cant locate much in the Southern end. Snow they sent all the horses north.
I love all of your videos and stories on TH-cam on lawn mowers and farm tractors and gas motors
I really like this one.
Our first riding mower was one of these back in the mid 80's. That thing could do wheelies, what a blast it was.
Slippers you Rock! QuietPlaces
The squeak sounds like Slippers getting a dollar out of his wallet
The grimy, greasy mower money comes hard..................
I love these Slippers restoration videos. They're a great complement to the rest of the channel content. Keep 'em coming!
Terrence is spot on about the modern car industry!!!!
💓💓💓💓
Very touching story. Looking forward to the next installment.
Slippers has really grown on me. Love these videos
I have a 1946 Frazer Rototiller B1-6R. Can't beat this machine for the job it does on your garden. Built to last.
Nice Cushman step thru in the back ground. I had a one when I was a kid. I have a 1949 Cushman Highlander now that I have had since I was 14, I'm 75 now. Rebuilt the old cast engine twice, now I'm running a Subaru Robin 14 H.P. engine with electric start and a Comet torque Converter in it.
Those wheel horses really bring back some memories Slippers . I grew up with one , that was easily 50 yrs ago .
You guys crack me up!
Cool little machine
Great job Slippers! I hope it ends up looking as good as everything else you do! Keep it up Brother!
As always, a joy and pleasure to watch. Thank you all and thumbs up for being here.!
Haha Wade is goofy and it's great!
Good on you Slipps. The ol' Wheel Horse is back where it belongs. Makes me weepy- Chevy small block in the custom tractor? Oh yeah!
That guy you got the tractor from sure did get a kick out of your slippers act lol
nice job flip dog
Team work, makes the dream work.
Glad to see Jordan get this one back! IMy brother and I have 6 RJs and I have owned ten or more over the years ! Still one of my favorite Ehedl Horse tractor models!
You are a good guy Slippers!
You're a good man slippers!
I'm loving these videos and learning at the same time! You guys are golden!
Eastwood offers steering wheel restoration products.
Looks like you have some serious chanel competition there with the Wheel Horse seller
Love those old David Bradleys. Always reminded me of one of those 1930's art deco locomotives.
What a sweet deal. A reunion and a restoration. 👍
@2:11 That's a pretty cool decal on the side of the gas tank. Never seen that before!
You did a nice thing Slippers!
amazing!!!!!!!! THANK YOU GUYS!!!
Great old tractor Slippers! Looking forward to the restoration videos.
32:44 😂😂😂🤣🤣 bottom of the steering wheel is holding on.
I saw that too. I thought they were doing that on purpose... But then, it seemed like neither of them had really noticed.... If other people missed it, the bottom of the steering wheel was trapped by the vise... the punch was never coming out, with the wheel trapped....
@@patrickmorrissey2271 I saw that too. I think it was actually loose after the first couple of taps. They just didn't know. Then when the vise was opened it just fell out.
This is the first time I've thought Taryl might actually be human, Or a demigod at the least.
Sweet trapter slip dog! Brings a tear to my eye. I want one!
Only took 20 hits to get that punch free 1🤣😁🤣,,,tarly an slipdog are awsome but the steering wheel caught on the vice made my day!!,,thanks taryl an all the crew for the great videos,I love building anything with a small engine myself,,,hello from the GA/TN line.
Wheel Horse wheel hubs are fun to get off😄
Going too be a sweet ride
Awesome as always!
great to see a treasured tractor with such sentimental value returned to Jordan.
some of us restorers aren't in it for the money, just today i was speaking to a woman 50km from me, she has a Wolseley 4/44 and mentioned she has trouble getting it into 3rd, i have a parts car and offered to advise her (i may even fix it with her).
i didn't know her until yesterday when i saw an advert for seedling trees on facebook marketplace.
oh as for the fix, it's a floor shift, so either a bad synchro on 3rd or wear on the selector fork both could be caused from up & down shifting, my bet is the synchro.
Hey slip I like your choices in your tractors selection wheel 🐎 one of the best back in the day for sure I also think it was very smart for you to have one to have a little fun with while using the other one to do a full restoration thumbs up on that de decision for sure can't wait to see all the videos on these tractors for sure I'm sure I will see my friend taryl around helping you out hear and there stay safe to the whole crew there and God bless all of you p.s. and there's your dinner p.s. again thank God you have a great friend like taryl
I liked the vise too. I have a Wilton bullet nose vise with 4" jaws, a real beast.
Pro tip: how do you keep your tools from vibrating off the bench, load up the entire lower shelf with cast iron.
Thanks Taryl for letting Slippers work and hound you in the garage...It brings back my memories of my Slipper days at the local auto shop.
Thanks guys...can't wait for the series of WH videos.
Fact: That Reel Mower Engine is the exact same Engine I had on my Mini-Bike when I was a kid. Old Rope-Crank Cast Iron Briggs engine!
I’ve never realized it before but, Slippers’ tattooed heart is exactly like how my dear mom draws them.
maybe she drew it on Slippers while he was over there delivering the goods
Excellent video Taryl :) and Flippers :)
That young fellow spread it on pretty thick to get that tractor. I like the part about his grandma use to ride it.
The steering wheel fix I would make a mold with modeling clay….epoxy dyed with black rekhaoil…sand and polish. I made a knife handle that way and holding up well! Thanks Slippers, love the vids!
I kinda want one now
That was fun !!
Nice little musical interlude toward the end there. Would that violin sound have been "The Devil Came Down From Jordan's"???
Much respect
Yepp slip dog I think you made a good deal this is going to be a fine ride can't wait to see the paint and stickers
Time to make them slipperfied hell yeah 👍
Looking there its rating job very well done
Better get a belt/pulley guard on that beauty or you will be needing a new leg. Great Deal for everyone. You need the proper punch to drive out a Roll Pin. You have a set on the bench. Correct size with Drill Rod also works sometimes.
VERY COOL
This will be good!
You always bet the good shit! 👍
Kansas opened up for Rory Gallagher 1976 Aragon Chicago both put on great show .Drove home snowstorm after show.
Whats better than the heat/quench is the addition of the second reheat.
This expands the rusty joint and offers opportunity for the 'not a lubricant' WeaselPiss erm WD40 to do its job.
i have a 314h love it
I used to have punches that bent real easy like that, bought a set of snap-on punches. Never looked back.
cool, I have a david bradley like that
Hope you put on a V-Twin, change out the pulleys, put low pro street tires on it. Make it fast, wheelie, do burnouts.
Thanks for sharing!
34:37 sound like a song it made me laugh so hard
Watched a few of your vids on the Roof Palomino, your interview with the chief engineers grandson was quite impressive and shows your passion for these machines.
A buddy of mine claims his family started Rupp mini bikes, and another friend says ger family started Blue Fin boats which started in your neck of the woods New Paris Indiana, makers of pretty awesome aluminum fishing boats. Also have a friend who says his dad invented the white line on roads, but since he was an employee of the state road commission he got zero credit
I've got one I've had for about 10 years now. If I'd known Slippers was looking for one, I may have wanted to sell it. But now maybe I want to get it running and take it to tractor shows again.
Why not knock it out hot? That is how we remove seized bolts. Glowing hot.
Expansion - contraction, see why he did it now, actually you'd be better off if you could cool those bolts super quick but ya really can't that's why when most ppl work on stuck rusty bolts on vehicles they don't do the quench part... well that and also cause of the mess and the huge reason is changed the structure of the metal too!
@@offyouselfsbuddy1683 We would hit them with WD 40 that burned instantly but did the quench you are talking about. Still glowing but way cooler than the surrounding metal so you are correct to quench but not always necessary.
make a small wood frame and mount the hood to that, sweet little side table/end table
Now were talking David Bradley !!
A tractor as old as Slippers. That's a muddin tractor!!!!
Slippers, where's the trademark slippers?
Those look like K M-apart gym shoes from the seventies!
I don't give a 🐀 rat's butt about restoration, I just think they should be able to cut grass again.
I have decided I do not like the original placement of the engine and stuff on this mower/tractor. Open air space under the hood? From here on out it will be nothing but damage control.
sure is alot better with the dactal!!!!
Fix that steering wheel with Bondo,and when dry shape it,works great for restoration
