Electric Wheel Co. made wagons that were sold under many brand different names.
------------- If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere. Real pullers don't have speed limits. If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY |

| Heider running gears used a pipe or round tong. Probably made by electric Wheal in Quincy, Il. Look for a tag on real axle, or at lease see if the ribits remain where one once was. |

| I have a Sears Roebuck running gear. It's different and it has 16" rims just like the old WW2 Jeeps and big centers. My sears has a metal nameplate on the back. |

Look at the back side of the hubs. "Electric Wheel Co." will be cast into them, or "EWC" also.
------------- Pre-WW2 A-C tractors on steel wheels...because I'm too cheap to buy tires! |

| A small tire shop owner told me back in about 2000 he could be a millionaire if he had a source for used 14" tires. His shop was in a college town and students constantly wanting something to put on their older cars. |

| Now if you could just find used 6 or 8 ply 14" tires. Grandpa always put old car tires on them. It worked fine for ear corn, which is what I remember, but when they hauled shelled corn they always blew tires even when they only loaded about 100bu per wagon. |
