Picked this up from an estate,one owner tractor.Been sitting for some years since the man passed away.After the normal go through she fired right up and runs great!Kohler Magnum 12 powered with a Peerless 4 speed.Also came with a deck.

Now that is one handsome tractor. Deserves a name. What do you think??

Nice Find. I have heard that they are a pretty good machine. Didn't know they were still in business in 86

Must be a company that never expanded widely into the country. I have never seen one in my area other than a coupel of real old antique ones.

Only seen a couple older unstyled ones. Like Sam I think them had to be imported into Missouri so you never see one. Sure looks like a well build machine. Congrats

Great pick up. Bet you can't wait to put the Speedex to work.

Tractor found a new home.It was VERY cool to look at,but it was a PITA to get on/off.It sure did run good though!!!
