Steering support and shaft looks like a Farmall B/BN so guessing front bolster is same.

He's had that on Facebook for a while. I've asked more than once for documentation it's an experimental and he's never provided it. $4,500 seems steep for something he can't verify. AaronSEIA

thats my point... if it is a "one of a kind bolster", he has that going for him... A serial number that it "ODD" or very low would help his cause.

Pre-production C tractors had hand brakes from the photos I have seen.

Looks similar to aftermarket steps I see that bolt to the cross beam in front of the operator area by the clutch.

Pictures of this "C" were posted here by "JerryMI" on1/15/07. He stated that it had A-C casting numbers. Although the post generated quite a lot of interest at the time, no one was able to say what it was.
I haven't seen a posting by JerryMI in many years....does anyone know whether or not he is still around?

Pretty strange, but different! I'm havin' a problem with the steering shaft as long as it is, there is no support at the steering joint. I'm wondering how that steers without binding up. The only support for the steering is at the steering wheel. You would think there would be a steering support at least at the bellhousing area.... Weird....  Steve@B&B

That is some heavy shafting in there, so probably no need for supports.

Ii had the same concern Steve.. If this was a "factory" design, i would think a support bushing would have been installed under the engine oil filter area, on the bell housing..
