You have a whole bunch of cool stuff in your tree line - very jealous!
Looks to be in decent shape, too - can you read the tire size?
Yeah, I have a bunch of implements that escaped the WWII scrap drives. The other area has two cultivators embedding in trees also. Hopefully, this year I'll get to sorting through it all (some?); saving the cool stuff and scrapping the junk.
I'm wondering if that isn't maybe from a motorcycle? Seems to me auto tires were taller and skinnier in the spoke wheel days. In any case, if it's an automobile tire, my guess would be 1920's.
By “Scrapping” you mean “listing on eBay and fleecing suckers” right?
Very cool! Any identifiers?
I really do not believe it's a motorcycle, next time I'm there I'll see what size but as I flipped it over to photograph (it was buried in leaves) it was probably 4"-5" thick. Motorcycle tires are rounded and this was flat tread. A rear motorcycle would have a sprocket and brakes and front brakes...this didn't.
I believe it was a 32 ford Model T. Found it when I was walking in the back of the farm looking for a cow. My wife, who had grown up on the farm, did not know it was there.
