1927 Worthington Lawn Tractor Ford Model T

That's pretty cool. Any idea what the original tires would have been? Does it have different gearing somewhere in the drivetrain?

I've seen pictures of similar machines with all steel wheels on them. Not sure what this one would have come with originally.

It has a gear reduction coming off the tranny. Interestingly, it's all Model T except for the rear end, which is Model A. It is believed to be a 1927 and seeing as 27 was the last year for the T and 28 was the first year for the A, I guess it makes sense. They could have had a leftover T, minus the rear end and used the A rear end.

I got it running, but haven't actually driven it, as I found the top of the radiator hose connection to be cracked.

Oh man you have ALL the toys!

Looks like big fun Hap !

Can't be sure from the pics, but those non-original tires look to be in better shape than a lot of what's been available the last 20 years or so.....
