Let's see your rebuild and restore projects...

Here's a Ford Dearborn cultivator rebuild. There must be a zillion around but not many this nice. This is how they looked when new.

Below are complete photos of the rebuild and restore process.

1950's Dearborn cultivator find and rebuild

Found this 8 ft wide Dearborn cultivator at a local auction about 10 miles away. They forgot it and it was almost the last to sell so I got a good deal. These are great cultivators for the small tractor. There was no loader tractor so I just decided to drive over with my JD5520 and bring it...

Anyone can do this and many already have. Post pics if you have them.

Here's a rebuild of an old two bottom Ford plow and a short line basic disc harrow. I had to weld and reinforce the harrow but the plow is built like a tank. I might have the color wrong on the plow colters.

Here's the plow

...and harrow.

Moving right along, here's a haywayon rebuild that was a rotten piece of junk but had newer Firestone rib implement tires I needed for something else. Anyway, parade wagon came to mind. Here's that thread.

It might have been a Coby but whatever it was I found the correct color. The white things on the jacks are kitchen trash bags to keep the paint off. The posts were from a fence I took up 30 years ago in Maine so they have a history. Wheel bearing are always junk so just replace. Repurpose everything possible.

Here a pic with thread link below.

Quick farm wagon build...

I think I am going to see if I can find an old Ford plow, I don't plan it this way but most of the old equipment I have revived has been Dearborn/Ford. Here is one of my non Ford implements an Alamo/Mott SHD74 fine cut I found a couple of years ago.

I have no idea why I failed to put the belt guard back on before taking the pic.
