Roolover protection for 1952 farmall Super C

[Pipes]

Has anyone made a rollbar for Super C? If so what size pipe did you use?

most are made out of tubing, a rectangular or square tubing,
one company I found makes them call and get a brochure, http://warehouse.ca.uky.edu/rops/modelrops.asp

if some one rolls the tractor and it has a home made ROPS, one may be in more liability problems than if it had none,

the mounting of it is critical, some of the older tractors the axels will snap and thus creating possibility more problems for the user
here is some pictures of similar tractor and some what newer, but some close ups of the main points,

It isn't gonna be cheap, and it isn't gonna maintain that old school look. You'll have to add a seatbelt too, of course.

I've heard of grants available, maybe through the extension agencies, to farmers retrofitting old machines. Might be worth a look.
