Recommended Posts

I picked up these 2 Cast Iron Rims at the scrap metal yard while I was selling some old aluminum tin. Not sure what I’ll use them on, but there cool looking.

They are cast in 3 pieces, right side , left , side, center spider him. They have a 1” bore.  The right side has a cast # 1917 and the left side has cast # 1928. The old paint looks to be Red. The tire is a Goodyear Studded Tread, R .80/4.00.  The Tire has what I think is a date number 196797. Which I think reads 1967, 9th month, 7th day.  

 

They were on the remains of a broken gear box, possible from a tiller or walking tractor. 

Anybody recognize them??

The 1917 and 1928 are probably parts numbers.  Maybe partstree or something like it would work.  :eusa-think:

I have an identical pair of the 7" cast iron rims from a mid '50s rototiller. It looked like this one. It also had a front mounted sickle bar mower that was driven off the output shaft at the front. When my dad bought it we had been looking at a :wh: RJ, I was soooooo disappointed when he chose the Rototiller.  I was counting on riding in style, not walking in the dirt!        :bitch:
