I thought what was left of the tires said 6.00 x 16 on them but I stupidly didn't take a picture, or bring a tape measure and now it's dark and rainy. I sort of expect to find wheel cylinders and it's just that the fittings/lines have rusted away (and those cables are for the handbrake), but the backing plates are in such surprisingly good shape that it's hard to see where the rusty stumps would hide.
Do I not want to buy bearings just because they cost more than wheels/tires/tubes combined, or for some other even better reason? I'm not looking to go crazy with restoration here, but it seems like a shame to haul it to the scrap yard after it's survived this long, and I could definitely use a wagon for my tractor. So I'd like to pop things open and see how bad it is. The wheels both do turn but I haven't freed it up enough to tell if they'll turn in the same direction. The front end of the prop shaft was buried, with a ~200 lb rock on top of it (collapsing stone wall), so it'd be weird if it weren't rusted up solid. But the rest of it is nowhere near as rusty as it should be so who knows. It may be magic. My '94 Civic is in worse shape, and I had a '67 VW bus which had an unfamiliar cat in it one morning -- that's how bad the floors were. So if this thing wants to live, at all, I want to let it!
Anyway, thanks!!
