Looks like they re-rotated the finals and put a lift kit in the front to even it out. Should be easy enough to fix if they didn't cut up the mounts for the frame. ------------- Waukesha B, B, IB, G, styled WF, D15, 615 backhoe, 2-Oliver OC3's, 4 Ford Model T's, 3 Model A Fords, AV8 Coupe, AV8 Roadster, 1933 Ford Wrecker |

It also looks like they shortened a C drawbar loop to fit the narrower B finals. ------------- "The trouble with quotes on the Internet is that you can never know if they are genuine." - Mark Twain |

Its different, but why do that ? He could have traded it for two model B tractors. ------------- Like them all, but love the "B"s. |

| That conversion wasn't done recently... I'd be willing to bet that if you look close enough, you'll find evidence suggesting that there was some sort of special implement mounted under the belly... like a scarifier, or a power-brush... something heavy, and used on a hard-surface. |
