I have a battery operated Ford 4000 HD Industrial Tractor that I got for Christmas back in 1962 or 63. It is made of tin and is about a 1/8th scale. It uses two D batteries that go inside a hand held controller. The controller has 4 push button switches and a steering wheel which is connected to the tractor by a cable. It has a motor powered front end loader and a back hoe that is operated with a crank. This is the only one I've ever seen. Has anyone ever seen one like this? I need a few parts for it that I took off when I was a kid. I need the two front wheels, and the three miniature motors along with the steering cable. I'm pretty sure I can retrofit the motors and possibly the steering cable, but need the front wheels. Does anyone know where I could possibly find parts for something like this? Besides the missing parts, the tractor itself is in excellent to mint condition. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
