Thanks for replies! I have already purchased a new set of 6.00-16 front tyres and tubes, but I have to wait for a place in Melbourne to re-open so that I can have the rims re-rolled. The instrument box is mounted very strangely; not standard for here or anywhere else so far as I know. The whole electrical system is odd for Australia. It has Delco-Remy starter, generator and regulator and headlamp switch and Hobbs hour meter, but Lucas headlamps mounted on the radiator cowling. I think the tractor is like this because it was imported fairly soon after the Second World War when tractors and parts were very difficult to get here, especially in an out of the way place like Bungowannah, New South Wales. The IH dealer in Albury would have fitted whatever parts he could get. Most likely he could not get a Farmall H/M mounting bracket, or the bolt on the side of the panel broke, so an alteration was made. The location is absolutely hopeless because the switch is difficult to reach when driving and the ammeter is difficult to read. Moreover, this being a very dusty country, the instrument boxes always fill with dirt, so it will have to be modified to keep its interior clean.

The engine on this tractor, a 1937 John Deere "B", had been stuck for 2 years before he gave it to me. This last spring (1999) I hauled the tractor to our 2 acre lot in St. Libory Nebraska where it joined my antique machinery collection, at that time a 1929 Caterpillar T
