Rollerman 290 #3 Posted December 14, 2008 Hard to say...pics are dark in all the wrong places. Sure looks Gibson like to me....A long time ago maybe before Mr Lincoln did his work...maybe. Anychance you could get some better pics of the rear axle & trans? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rustbucket 4 #4 Posted December 14, 2008 rear axle looks to be out of a realy old ford and i cant get picks it was a day trip just to go grab the ranger and these pictures he lives in the southern end of PA and i live in the northern end. the front chain drives a old old hydro pump/resivour that runs the front blades lift and lower and there is a rear chain drive off the engine that goes to what looks like a old model T transmission then back to the rear end. like i said OLD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

linen beige 14 #6 Posted December 14, 2008 High school agricultural mechanics class project.....after the budget cuts. BTW, the model "T" had no shift lever. It had a semi-automatic two speed controlled by a foot pedal. Ford called it the "Planetery transmission". This tranny could be model "A" though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rollerman 290 #9 Posted December 14, 2008 Greg I did say Gibson "like"? I can't make out a lot of detail with the pics....to many shadows. Keep in mind what my Ponds looked like...the one was close to unrecognizeable with all the add ons welded to it. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
