We had an F-20 back in the 1940s, had a board like that on the drawbar. Violated the safety rules many times by riding standing on the board!

I wonder if those tires are original or from when it was converted to rubber.

 

[Shetland Sheepdog]

Regulars NEVER came new on rubber!

(quoted from post at 22:08:49 09/29/21) Regulars NEVER came new on rubber!

Yeah...maybe that's why I qualified it "or when it was converted to rubber"!! Anyway....it was a long time ago!

 

[Shetland Sheepdog]

Grandpa's Regular was converted to rubber in the late 30's!
They put 36" tires on the rear, so tractor ran "down hill" a bit!
The tires were Wards Riverside "knobbies"!
The wheels and tires are still around, although not on the tractor at present.

 

[Shetland Sheepdog]

Oh yeah, the tires were mounted on F&H round spoke wheels

I give that a big ol' thumbs-up.

We have a platform across our Reg and
our F-20. Both also have a 'queen
seat'... fer me. GRIN
