Got this awhile back, its from a walk behind tractor, much like a Gravely but called a David Bradley, stamped right into it on both sides. Its really unique, was thinking it might make a cool air cleaner if cut somehow. Anybody got any ideas what to do with it?
I'm making a push car for my boy if I ever get it done, he's already getting pretty big, might have to alter it again....
It would be awsome on a walk behind mower like a gravely. Just don't use it on your car. I will trade you a boat motor top or a mailbox.
That was made in Bradley,IL a few blocks from where I grew up. There are some serious David Bradley collectors. Sell it to one of them.
if you have a kid I'd make it into a peddal car or stroller(digger style), the front to aa special swap meet parts chaser or put it on a rototiller, for doing a garden! Too cool not to do something with it!!
I actually see the back of a sprint car themed build. It has the axle notch, cut it along the vertical feature and that is where the roll bar would go. Hell it even already has the hole in it for the push bar!
Would make a cool mailbox, or sell to a tractor collector and buy two mailboxes.....Maybe i have a mailbox obsession, i need a new one. Mine has electrical tape covering a hole.
i found one of those the other day in a grove also , too tractor looking for me to figure out anything worth pulling it off for and using it , cool piece though, i left it where it sat instead for someone into david bradleys to save
