Wow, Vintage Day with a cool history lesson! Think of the many years of folks using the tractors and parts and the stories told by each item salvaged! What a score!!
Worthington mowers are cool. We "restored" one. It did have the 35-6 R axle housings. I seem to remember ours having A front end. We didn't have the OG wheels, etc. We used a 28-9 cowl, etc. great fun, and it sold well!,, Love Dubs
my uncle lived in poughkeepsie almost 60yrs collected antique furniture/art & stuff brought over in trunks by settlers going back 1700's 1800's like you said people throw it out i hang on to the old horse drawn machinery left here before my parents bought this farm there's two B.F. Avery potato planters that predate john deere some of the horse tack stuff have no idea what its about there's a whole way of life being lost in time
Yeah, that's kind of how it goes. People only really have attachment to stuff they can relate to and seldom have to foresight to see that other stuff has value too.
I think you'll find that those Worthington mini tractors were built as golf course mower power units. Their factory made using auto parts from Ford mostly.
That's not it. The hook is a chrome piece that mounts under the lower trim. That hook looking thing is a spare tire hold down bracket out of some kind of small foreign car.
Model AA 4 speed transmissions had a pedal pivot shaft. I think this was because the clutch housing was shorter (front to back) so there was no place for the pedal pivot any more. The purpose of all this might have been to keep the total length of the 3 speed and 4 speed setups the same. The Model BB and later 4 speed trans was likely the same inside but did not have the pedal mount.

SCOR1 for the little guy nice job Josh.

Yes, I went over all that in the video.
👍🏻Oh boy…. Someone will have to put add on to the gas station to keep it all. lol
Two of the Worthingtons are going to be for sale and I hope to sell some of the smalls at Hershey.
That signal box is a GAS!
Safety 1st!
I like how the Ford script logo still get put on Fords today.
👍
Worthington golf course tractors! Jacobsen also built golf course tractors using Ford truck parts.
I think Jacobsen bought out Worthington.
@QuickSpeedShop Yeah, I think they did. I have seen tractors that say Jacobsen-Worthington on them but they are all powered by Continental engines.
The hook for the air regulator is laying right beside it on the ground

Hi Josh
New comment, who dis?
Someone valued it enough to put it in dry storage years ago
Yup. Mice had their way with a lot of the stuff in storage.
