Name that wagon

[low_life]

I came home from work today and this was in my driveway (happens all the time i find things with wheels in my driveway but this one i thought was cool) anyway neighbor told me he thinks it's a radio flyer but after searching and searching the web i can't find another one like it. I'm gonna hotrod it but when possible i like to know what it is i'm hacking...lol well heres the pics if anyone can help it's appreciated.

my first thought is murry but the caps dont have the m on them. other than that i would say roadmaster i think they made some like that. well if you cant figure out what it is send it to me so i can drop axle it for you :mrgreen:

Asking to be chopped, that's for sure.

Ok thanks quick question the wheels on this are ROTTED through anyone know where i can get parts for it?

 

[karfer67]

i say drill out the rotted part and press in some bearings. those wheels are way too cool to toss out. and a drop axle setup for that is a must. makes me want to build another one i have another pan but not an old one like that. wish i could get that lucky

I agree the wheels are way cool but it's the outer part of the wheels that are rotted (the other side not in the pic the rear wheel is practically gone)

ok i checked it out tonight and the one wheel that is still in ok shape does indeed have an M in it so i'm going with murrey (good call) any idea on year?

i would say early 50's but i am not an expert.

 

[Markm]

I do have one similar, but don't have any info other than its been in my wifes family for "a long time"...

I'd be interested in anything you find out.

When I was a kid my grandma had one like lowlifes that she used to carry her clothes baskets out to the line. If I remember right, it was a Hamilton Greyhound. Gary
