To me it looks like RND/RWM/No 25 board

The Guidtop was originally an export body for South Africa introduced in 1938, hence an Afrikaner name perhaps. It later became known as the AGT3 and became popular in Scotland where a complete inversion of the furrow was required. It certainly looks useful and was probably only offered, along with the RND, on the TS63 in the mounted plough era because of its length. I think that it may be similar to an RND in operation.

Do you have anymore pics? My grandfather used to talk about a set of them he had. I wouldn't mind finding a pair.

Looks neither RND or RWM orientated Pete. Pair of front mounting holes similar to SCN. Both RND and RWM only have 1.

Think Dad going to put them on a trailing plough or maybe a ts72 I have enough to do trying to get the rsld sorted out.
