Aahhhh...that's the question I should've asked first... It's just a guess, but you'll want to look up some pictures and do some reading about a Chrysler 6cyl engined tractor that had a number of descendants; yours just might be another, or perhaps an antecedent: Original 1935-?? CO-OP (Battle Creek, Shelbyville, Arthurdale), and it's brother, the FARMERS UNION CO-OP (South St Paul/St Paul), NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH the later Cockshutt CO-OP with Cont F140 or Buda 4B153, actually a Cockshutt; Custom, probably first descendant; Rockol, Regal and Norseman, Canadians; Lehr Big Boy, Jumbo aka Simpsons Jumbo, Mont Ward full size EXCEPT the Twin-Row); Then there are the third generation units: Love (Jacob Love) Friday (Dave Friday) OMC (Amos Ostenburg/Osterberg?), NOT the marine engine OMC); Closson and Wilson: never really verified these. All above from memory; mislaid my notes. I know your date was 1933; the 1935/6 production was of a unit that Parrett? had been shopping around, per one version of its history. After you've checked out the above (lots of posts in the archives here and in GEM, etc), get back to me email direct. If you'd rather not email direct, over and out. Bud

But, I want to talk about my tractor! We didn't even own a lawnmower, and all of a sudden we had enough grass to feed all the starving children of the bovine world. Naturally, I talked
