I have seen a couple at tractor shows... on pre 1940 tractors... always wondered if it was factory, or taken off semi truck.. they were 24 inch..

The earlier 1938 tractors had them. I put a link to a picture in the original post.

In my earlier days on the farm, we had a B with a 3 digit serial number that we were very sure was all original when we got it. It had lock ring type rims. One was nearly unusable as it had probably has CaCi in them since new.

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
