    Posted: 30 Oct 2010 at 11:25pm
   Well, I got lucky and found a person coming from N Cal to AZ this week and she is going to meet me in Flagstaff on Thursday. That saved me around 1700 miles. Anyways, here is the pictures that they sent me today after they got it loaded and back to their house.
  I am still not sure if it would be called an orchard but the seat sure looks to sit very low. I asked them to send me a better pic from the rear.
      They said the rear wheel bolt pattern is 7 3/4"  on 6,  Is that a BP for a UC or what? I would like to put this tractor over on steel if anyone might have a set of narrow rear wheels for it.
   The manifold and other missing parts are in the pickup so hopefully I got everything for it.
 
  By the serial number, it should be an early 36.  SN U9864

Looks like the front axle is very narrow, wonder if it could be an "industrial" model with a narrower tread width?  Front axle just looks a bit different somehow.  I think the bolt on rear wheels are unique as well.

I finally had time to check and the UC has the 7 3/4 bolt pattern. Sorry for the delay.  Dave.

You need that Orchard Pan scraper I saw advertised to go with that. It was extra narrow but I have no idea why you would need a pan scraper in an orchard.

 Here are 2 shots from the rear she sent me. They are not the clearest but atleast it shows the seating arrangement.

Is that the hand clutch lever sticking up? That and the low seat would make it an Industrial model, right?

Lonnie, As far as I have found out right now it is an industrial UN, but all of the pictures I have found of a Industrial UN have had the seat sitting ontop of the rearend housing like a normal U. 
  It came from the orchard groves in N Cal so maybe the steering/seat arrangement was for the orchards.

Neat tractor!!  Let us know how it progresses.
Don't forget these units were very adaptable and were adapted to almost any operation.
Good Luck!

I'm sure it was used in an orchard.  They pulled some pretty heavy disks and rippers between the trees to get water to soak in better.  Also heavy sprayers needed a powerful tractor to pull them through the orchards.
Looks like a couple days work will have her ready for the shows. LOL

 Well,  I just got back home from AZ with the UN. The shipper that brought it down from N CA. didnt tie the hood down so if anyone sees a grey hood on the highway in Ca, IT'S MINE!!!!!!.....LOL
 
   After looking it over in person, I believe that everything is factory except for a couple of welded on plates on the hitch. 
  The tractor has 3 coats of paint. The original is orange, then yellow and the top grey.  
  This tractor has alot of wear on the shifting lever where it goes through the metal plate but the steering is not heavily worn. No compression when the crank is turned.   Other then needing fenders, the right side radiator casting and now a hood, the tractor is very complete and buildable. The manifolds and carb are in the bed of my pickup.

I lost a hood on north bound I77 once hauling a 5015. Luckily my wife was behind me in our brand new Buick and the hood just missed her as it flew through the air. Picked  up the hood and was on our way. She dodged a hood and I dodged a bullet.

I lost the radiator cap off my 37 WC. Almost hit the car behind us. Good excuse to buy a new one. LOL

What are your intentions with the IB ? Restore or part out ?

Interesting to see electric start on a 36 model.
Most problems can be solved with the proper application of high explosives.
