I am slowly moving towards the rear in restoring my 1930 Case L. The Rear Platform as Case calls it was made up of 4 pieces of lumber. The first, at the furthest back part of the tractor, ran all the way across and sat on four supports. Then, forward of that there were two square side pieces that attached the the sides of the fenders and two channel supports. The puzzling one for me was in the center, and while the parts book shows it as having four 1/4" carriage bolts, two along each side, I can't see where they attach to the tractor. Has anyone got a photo of how this center board was attached? As usual, thanks for all your help - previous and present.

That section lifts out as the tool box was mounted between the frame rails. I had one saved for a pattern if I ever get my L restored, but when one of my fiends and I cleaned out part of my garage last winter it got tossed in the trash.

Thanks Tom. With that clue, I had a look at the Case brochure (1929?) that announced the Model L and found a picture of the rear platform. On the early L, I remembered, there was no toolbox mounted on the steering column. Sure enough the front center panel of the rear platform has the four carriage bolts, and what I now see as a small knob of some sort which would have allowed the operator to lift it up and thus expose a toolbox set between the rails. By the time of my earliest parts book, 1931, this was no longer used, as the toolbox was on the steering column. I suppose if I ever get a copy of the 1929 or 1930 parts book I'll see this. Meantime, I'm on my way to figuring out what to do - probably just a plain board with a small knob or something in case I ever need to lift it out. By the way, in the 1931 Models L and C sales brochure, the same rear platform drawing of the Model L has been modified to show a toolbox mounted on the steering column, and no little knob on the front center floor panel. I wonder what the four carriage bolts connected to?

Mine just had a finger hole to lift it up with. I may have another one on an L at my family's farm in Kansas; I can't remember how it's set up.
