The Chrysler running gear tractor was the CO-OP, built 1935 by Duplex in Battle creek (for farm coop'tves), later by the farm coop'tvs in Shelbyville, Arthurdale and St Paul (the St Paul ones were FARMERS UNION CO-OPs). Some Hubers and Avery/General GG's were also sold as CO-OPs, but they weren't Chrysler running gear. After the coop'tves made a deal with Cockshutt, to sell Cockshutts as CO-OPs here, the Chrysler based design went to Custom, and from there it gets even more complicated. This design was sold as Custom, Wards (but not Wards Twin-Row),Jumbo aka Simpsons Jumbo, Lehr Big Boy, Love, Friday, OMC (Amos Ostnburg?) Closson and Wilson (or Closson and Wilson individually), and as Rockol, Regal and Norseman in Canada. Custom and maybe others added Chrysler straight 8's and Fluid Drive; Love and/or Friday added 2 spd rears, getting (reportedly) 60-62-65 mph. I found no business connection with CCptn, other than almost certainly buying components at mfr's rates, but there's lots I've never found. (All this is vastly simplified, quoted from memory as I've misplaced my notes!). As mentioned, the Plymouth, later Silver King, had no CCptn connection and didn't use CCptn running gear per available ref books.

The soil is a rich dark brown and is well looked after. unlike some areas in the midlands it is also fairly flat, broken only by hedgerows and the occasional valley and brook. A copse of wildbreaking silver birch and oak trees surround the top si
