SweetFeet said: (quoted from post at 00:04:13 05/09/12) Husband and I saw this IHC plow and would like to know more about it. Hoping you folks can lend me a hand with some information:
1. What is the model number? (The IHC logo was the only identifier that we could find.)
2. What range of years would these have been manufactured?
3. Is it period-correct to go with our 1931 Farmall Regular? (If yes, we do want to find one after we get the old girl running - and he wants this type of hook-up on the plow).
4. What is a fair price range when buying one of these plows?
Plow is a McCormick/IH Number 4 "Little Wonder" tractor plow. They were made in the 1940's and '50's, so, not "period correct". Hitch is a compression spring release type. You'll need a spanner wrench to adjust the springs if the original style nuts are there. This plow was not designed for "heavy" ground.
Check for slop in the wheels and condition of wear parts. See if everything looks correct and nothing looks bent, twisted, or welded.
Those compression springs appear to be over tightened on the hitch, and it will not break away properly set how they are.
