Guess the model number

[Farwell]

Pooh Bear,
Sure looks like the same one in the manual that you posted. That manual was one of the best I have ever seen. Thanks for posting the site.

One of the other manuals on that site specifically mentions the 14-67
The Dearborn 14-59 manual says (most of) it applys to the 14-67 also.
So I guess it is a model 14-67

I have to agree. Those are some of the best manuals I have ever seen.

I'm gonna fiddle with this thing as I get time over the summer.
So far I just go out and spray all the bolts with Liquid Wrench.
I'm afraid a lot of those bolts aren't going to be easy to get off.
With the manuals I can see what parts and brackets I am missing.
I believe with a little creative redneck engineering I can make this thing work.

Sure would like to know when it was manufactured.
I tried searching for history of the Dearborn company. But found nothing.

Thanks.

Pooh Bear,
I have found that if rusted bolts are easy to get at and available for purchase my favorite wrench is a 4 inch grinder. I have spent hours trying to salvage bolts that were readily available for a very reasonable price before the light bulb in my brain turned on. My other option would be to heat the bolts but no longer have the tanks for my torch.
Looks like a great project. Many of the different models may have interchangeable parts with few minor differences.

Most of the bolts look like I could just cut (or break) them off
and replace with new bolts from the hardware store.

I see one or two tho that will be troublesome if they brake
and are left in the casting. Will have to use heat for those.

I'm gonna have to be creative for those brackets
and linkages that are missing. Shouldn't be hard to do tho.
