Manufacture, vintage?

[Blue2Orange]

Mud season has arrived. Mix of snow covered to open ground with dry to soggy to muddy surfaces. Trails I like to hike still have knee deep stretches of snow on north facing pitches. So it is just casual short walks along the township road splashing mud on the cuffs of the trousers.

My neighbor to my west has an orchard that is a test plot v. commercial operation. For years I've walked past this implement sitting in the weeds next to a patch of trees. Some make of a two blade plow. Rust patina with no markings of manufacture or model.

Any guesses to manufacturer?

My best guess is that it is a Ferguson - Sherman . When you look at the upright cast pieces for the top link and other features in comparison to other plows of that type that use strap iron it leads me to believe Ferguson.

I believe it’s got Ford origins…. A “Dearborn’ brand tho’.
