I saw this Ford front weight at a show this weekend, and had never seen one before. It seemed like cast iron when I tapped on it with my finger, but I couldn't tell for sure. Has anyone else seen one of these, and is it cast iron? It looked pretty cool. TIA

that front weight box will easily bring $1000. to the right collector, add the fact that a good set of heavy ford rear pie weights sell for over $600, means there is $1600+ in weights on that tractor, yes they are cast ------------- i like old tractors of all colors |
