That grill sure had a hard life even if the rest of the tractor didn't which would suspect did too.

Probably worked to death, wasn't ever thought of as a trailer queen! Or a future restore, it was a simple tool.

I've never drove a tractor with a single
front wheel, I would think it would be like
having power steering compared to a wide
front.

Looks like how I feel this mourning. Only I can't be fixed up. To many days in the big blue shed!!!

I can see/understand why some people would think that. I've seen it many times myself.
It's hard to say what happened here, since it's history is untold. Could be that somebody mistreated it and then just drove it here, shut it off, and this is what it looks like today. Or it could be that somebody ruined a back tire, couldn't ever afford a new one, some restoration guy stole the hood, and tractor was sold with the farm, and the new owner accidently backed into the side of the grill with a combine or swather years later.
As you can tell by these 2 explanations, it's history could tell two very different stories about it's present condition.
What ever the case, tractor enthusiast don't like to see them quite this abused.
On another note, straighter better specimens of tractors have probably been sent to the smeltering pot. If any kind of a middle man has been involved with this, perhaps a thank you is in order for it not being sent down the road with the iron guy years ago.

Actually worse when going very slow. The PSF pressure is higher, and the pivoting happens in the print. Both wheels of a narrow front turn in opposite directions, rolling forward on one side and back on the other. a wide front can turn pretty hard, but with less pressure on the ground per tire. Jim
