Oz Dodge 4 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 I recon the tractor would ride "heaps better", it would be a rough ride in the sidecar with the front of the sidecar wired to the tractors front wheel ! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oz Dodge 4 Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Yes, they obviously enjoyed playing a prank on their friends, and it would be hard to spot on a postcard sized or smaller photo. The Fordsons interesting though, a very early model F "Dearbourn" made in the old Madison Avenue plant before the shift to the "new" Detroit factory, with the dashboard used pre the optional fitting of guards, (no holes for the brackets) and the push in mushroom style oil filler/breather, early type single compartment fuel tank with the T truck water trap tap so it must have the cast iron starting tank mounted on the other side of the water scrubber (air cleaner) has to be made before 1923. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
