Has anyone ever heard of a century products co. wagon hoist. My grandpa has one in the grove. It has an oil resevoir on the side with a lever coming out of it.

I live in Arthur, IL, the home of Progress Industries. Back in the 40's / 50's, they made barge and flare bed wagons. I am looking to find one to restore. They sold them under the Promway of Farmway names. They also manufactured the Promway Corn Dump as well. Any help would be appreciated.
