Hello,

An F-12 with original wide front is very rare...especially in northwestern Minnesota....Narrow fronts are everywhere...but widefronts are few and far between....I've been trying to purchase one for awhile but they seemed to be out of my league...I saw an F-12 with factory round spokes front and rear with wide front that was in rough shape that brought 3800 dollars......At another auction the guy had a wide front end in a shed with steel wheels on the front and that brought 2100 dollars......I got my break last summer when I placed an ad in the local shopper wanting F-12 parts or stuck tractors and I got a call from an oldtimer who said he had an F-30 with wide front for sale...he wanted 300 dollars for it....I bought it over the phone and when I went to get it I found that it was a 1933 F-12 with a Waukesha engine in it and original wide front...I hit paydirt....so I think alot of it is just pure luck and being in the right place at the right time.....
