You are right those wagons were big in their day. Dad bought a 6X10 Heider in the late forties or early fifties and it was the pride of the neighborhood. It did not have the top hinged rear gate though, only a small slide gate. Then he bought another 6X10 Heider in 1959 and then a huge 6X12 Heider in 1962.

A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
