Afternoon AC Team: Am assembling a 1939 B that was destined for the scrap yard, it had the original steel spoke rims on rear but not front. I have the front axle and am looking to purchase a pair of original spoke rims for the front. Am open to shipping or travel in New York or Vermont to secure, or could ship on my nickel.

Kindly let me know if you have anything to sell, I would be open also to a pair of front spoked rims that were cut down for rubber.

Please reach me here through PM if this is something you have and would like to cash out.

Thanks Much ~ Orangeman

Are you looking for the correct front wheels for a restoration? If so the spokes are not what a 1939 B would have had from the factory. The spoke wheels were a wartime change to conserved material.

Depending on you tractors serial number a 39 would most likely had a pressed steel rim rivited to the front hub.

Hey PaulB: - Yes I am looking for the spoked front rims and yes some of the 39's perhaps most of them did have a riveted wheel. Thanks for the insights! ~ Orangeman
