I need to know if the front pedestal is different for the unstyled wc VS the styled tractors. The 35 unstyled I bought is missing the permanent hand crank. Need to know if I need the complete front end or just the crank. Thanks.

I'm pretty sure there is no difference. I looked at all my WC's and some have a casting # and some don't but they all look identical. Mine range from 1934-1948.

Many of the 1 piece cranks took out too many fence posts and were replaced also.

There was nothing hard about sticking the crank into a woven wire fence and customizing it. Did that several times before I learned that I didn't save any time trying to turn on the ends with a wide open throttle! By the time I straightened the crank out, after I got the stupid thing backed out of the fence, I probably lost an average of a round v.s. my uncle, and you know that just didn't work for a teenager(cocky type too).
