No, it's not orange, just unusual. It's a Chain Tred Tractor Co. from Portland OR. From the motor serial # it's between 1949 and 1955, 1 speed forward with a drawbar and PTO in back and tool attachment in front. Bought it as a "ran when parked" and a squirt of gas in the carb and it came to life. If anyone has info or literature on one of these I would be interested in it.

The AK series Wisconsin is a tough one to wear out. I have a few of them in my collection.

That thing can't have been used much, either that or it was repainted.
I'd love to find something like that for working in the garden.

Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for much of anything but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

It's an old timer, judging from the starter pulley, and it has not been used very much.

There is one just like it sitting in an outside display of some old market garden equipment at our agricultural hall on Gabriola Island, British Columbia.

That looks pretty cool! Don't run over your toes with it in bare feet.

I had it out in the yard today checking it out and it travels 48 feet per minute which comes out to just over 1/2 mile per hour, a little too slow to ride around the shows like we do with the David Bradley. The little beast weighs 510 pounds so definitly keep your toes clear.
