We found a trailer load of round hoods

Not sure what all we have yet. There are supposed to be more than enough parts to build 6 round hood tractors, lots of spare parts, some extra 3 piece rearends, but only 3 sets of tires and 4 engines, and one is a Briggs... There are 2 blower units we bought also that both have good K91 engines on them that I think we can use. There are a lot more tractors to get from the same person once he can get to them this Spring. :woo

Gonna try to sort through some of it next week. Craig will be proud. :yes

I know very little about the round hoods, you guys will have to help educate me. :)


The Ag tires say General, 2 of the others say BF Goodrich, the 2 like them say Wheel Horse.

The two hoods toward the front of the trailer appear to be a 401 and a 400. Those tires are definitely BFG Silvertowns, along with lots of 700 series stuff!!! Wow!!!

I can see a belt guard that says 702. This stuff is packed in there tight. I see 8 frames and 9 rearends. 5 rearends are 3 piece. There are 10 hoods total but 1 is cut up beyond repair. There are also several of the rear little triangle belt guards. 5 sets of round smooth rear fenders and 4 sets of larger rear fenders with the 3 ridges in each one.

Those transmissions are "probably" 5010's or possibly 5003's, the 5003 brake band mount is vertical where the 5010 is at a 45 degree angle. Either way that's a really impressive haul for sure. :bow1 :bow2

Thanks Blue and the rest of you guys. :)

We've managed to ID 2 of them in the rear that are still together. According to the front axle design and transmission codes one is a 59 RJ, and one is a 60 Suburban. Looks like half of them have the old style flat steel front axle so that helps me narrow them down.
