Looks like some kind of horse drawn cultivator. If there are any amish in your area they could probably tell you what it's for.

G'day Mate and welcome to TBN from Downunder.

Enjoy the site and that's exactly what frankroberts suggests it is.

If you GIS horse drawn cultivator you'll see many examples to help for restoring it... except for the horses, of course.

Thanks really appreciate it, there's some old wagon out there also I'll be digging up next. Lol ,Any idea of possible year or manufacturer?

Any idea of possible year or manufacturer?

Can't help you there as you'll need to provide some sort of identifying marks, stamped numbers, etc... but I'd only be using my own 'Google-fu' to assist.

Sounds like an old John Deere

I see it as a horse drawn "chisel plow" used for tillage without turning the earth over like a moldboard plow. This is the modern equal ..
