What tractor this is?

So this popped up on my local craigslist the other day and I can't figure out what kind of tractor it is. (This is the only picture they posted.) The seller says it runs good and is asking $250 for it. Anyone know what this is and is it worth what they're asking?

Maybe some sort of old Ford LT that someone painted orange? Those appear to be Ford fenders at least.

That's an old Gilson or Montgomery Wards GT series, should have a Peerless 2300 series transaxle.

Might be a pretty good tractor for $250!

Thanks for the info! After a search for "Gilson GT tractor", I found this image:

Probably safe to say the one in the listing is a Gilson. Smile

I may need to get rid of my MTD if I want to get the Gilson, though.

Ah yeah, Allis is right, like usual, hehe. This is what I had in mind though, the backend of it looks the same.
