| IM IN LOVE!!  I had one of these I started bringing back from the dead, it didnt have a hood or motor but the rest was there. Everything was frozen up on mine and i got it all broke loose, made a new hood for it in metal shop, took it to my buddys to store it and a few months later he scrapped it  always wondered what kind it was and what the factory hood looked like. Looks tough with the big tires on on it | |

| Classic look. I love it! Also the starter cup on the motor is cool. That crankshaft is a good one because it has the starter extension on it. You can put a recoil starter on it. Those tires really make it look good. I bet this thing will great capability. Does it have a differential? It would be easy to make it a live axle. | |

| good deal! what year is it? my Montgomery wardis a 1985, 18 horse opposed briggs, its a BEAST!!! Stock tires, mostly stock, haven't got the playing money to do muck with it, considering its size, the rear tires are 23x9.50-12 . Its a GIANT tractor, well, at relative to a standard size tractor. | |
