My oldest son had one. Ran good and he and others had a lot of fun with it. The clutch was giving trouble. His younger brother and his buddies decided to dissasemble it, They then lost part of the pieces End of a good tractor. |

Looks like a model 23 Briggs for engine power. I have plenty of N.O.S. parts to fit one of those. PM me if/when you need engine parts. ------------- "Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the government take care of him better take a closer look at the American Indian."

A little bit of odd trivia--when the Santa's Village amusement park opened in East Dundee, IL around 1960, one of the rides was driving Bantam garden tractors like that around a track. It was one of the first rides phased out. I see a few Bantams at shows around Northern Illinois and I kind of wonder if the ones I see could be traced back to that ride. |
