I have a Worthington, but it is not in repairable shape. Mine is a Chief model and has an 8N Ford engine radiator and hood. As the flathead 4 cylinder engine has a side mount distributor, I'd guess it is a 1951 model, maybe 52 at the newest. As the engine block has 1/2 of the bell housing cast into the backside, the only tranny it easily fits is either the Ford N tractor tranny, but mine has the 4 speed Ford truck tranny. The output shaft of the tranny has a welded ~4" diam sprocket which rides just forward of the similar sprocket on the dual wheel differential (1 ton truck axle). They are joined by a double wide chain. My Worthington was a golf course tractor, sat quite low and pulled a gang reel mower. There was no suspension, but it was capable of 40+mph with a single pedal brake sending fluid to both rear drum brakes. Dual rear wheels were fluid filled with chloride that ate the wheels to death. I have seen this model on the web.
