Thanks to Doc Smith I finally found a WC Maintainer, got it home this afternoon, It is complete, all three tires in good condition, left rear rim is bad and engine is stuck but overall it is in very good condition.
It is a 1938, tractor serial # 74313 the 16th from the last unstyled WC made. Maintainer serial # is 1-C-99. The 99th one made of 411. I do not know how to post pictures but picture of it is in the Fall 2009 issue of OAN. |

Congraulations Dale. I was puting together a package for Woodrow. Does this mean that I should send it to you instead? My 1938 Unstyled WC Speed Maintainer is serial 1C115. I have sales literature, operators manual, and a number of originial ads that I can copy. Will you be at the GOTO in a few weeks? I can bring the package along.

Calvin, Woodrow did not say anything about it but I would be very interested in anything you have on the Maintainer.
That is interesting, mine is #99 and yours is #115, so if yours is unstyled that means AC made the last 16 unstyled WC tractors as Maintainers!!!! I do not think I will be going to the GOTO in Tn. |

This is the Gathering of the Graders (GOTG) at the GOTO in Ontario last year. My 1938 Unstlyed Speed Maintainer is between my TL-W loader and a friends 1939 Styled Speed maintainer. Armand DeYoung built a model of my Speed maintainer.
