FS Narrow Front & Rear Axle & Frame -Rail Car! Pending

Post by TRDxB2 » Tue Sep 24, 2024 12:20 pm

Was part of my Barn Finds. The front & rear axles have been narrowed & the frame shortened. Not the most attractive methods to shorten radius rods or the frame. Will take better pictures if interested just burried stuff in moving parts. $450 pick up only in Coal Valley IL. Its just 2.5 miles off Interstate 80 on US Highway 6. Have lots of other parts as well. Location is just 10 miles East of Craig Beek's Model T museum. Can arrange a tour of that too. Its on your way to/from Hershey. pending

I'll measure and take some measurements & add pictures with tape measure

Frank,
I still waiting to hear from the organization that I’m building this project for to see if they have the range of measurements that will work for them.
I’ll left you know as soon as I hear from them

Thank you for your patience.

I have lots of patience and parts too, so if something else is needed I'm likely to have that too (no body parts though). I have an starter engine, needs rebuilding, that I haven't moved from the Barn yet. Some frames too if that's needed
