This parade wagon was originally purchased as a turn
of the century Massey Harris manure spreader. When purchased the wooden
box was rotted away and most of the moving parts were rusted beyond
repair. However the frame and wheels were in surprisingly good
condition. The wheels were removed and even the bearings looked new and
still in grease.
The tail gate of the wagon is also removable. Additionally seats pads were
made for passenger comfort. The box is 11 ft 5 in long and 3 ft 5 in
wide. Total width is 5 ft 9 in and total length is17 ft 6 in.

The frame was then sand blasted, cleaned, and primed. The frame and
wheels were painted to match the silver paint of the Farmall H tractor
wheels. A wooden box and seat were constructed from poplar lumber and
painted to match the Farmall colors. McCormick Deering decals were also
added to match.

Because the wagon was designed to be pulled on the
street, ¾ inch thick rubber strips were wrapped around each wheel to
protect the wheel and the street. The rubber is mounted to each
wheel using 1/4 carriage bolts and is easily removable should the
need arise.

Since the spreader was originally horse drawn, a removable tongue was
constructed of pressure treated 4 x 4 lumber. Irons were placed on
both ends to allow easy hook up to the tractor and the wagon itself.
