Rear Wheels

Post by JohnC »

It seems that the rear wheels on my E27 are not standard (the fronts are N type so I am beginning to wonder about its parentage). One suggestion I have been given is that they may be a home made set to convert it from steel wheels. This may explain the fronts being odd. Any info gratefully received.

I have read, that some/many/most E27n that went to Australia were supplied sans wheels, to be fitted locally by the Fordson dealers.
This practice may have been common for any export.

So wonder no more. It is common to see different wheels on Fordsons

Yours look very home made however. I have a model F with rubber wheels and the hubs are made from an old set of iron wheels and cut and welded to make fit.

Not a bad effort I say.
