Did Simplicity Build this for Sears????

Recommended Posts

Came across this on eBay. Description says that tractor was built for Sears by Simplicity. Can anyone shed light on this? Thanks, John_ri[A href='http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2024259969']http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2024259969[/a]

Dunno what he's been smoking... but it looks like a Roper-made tractor to me... I don't see anything that bears any resemblance to Simplicity, and as far as I know, they never did. I've heard claims that they may have made some for JC Penney, but I've been unable to confirm or disprove it.

I agree Kent, only thing that looks like it MIGHT fit a Simplicity is the 5 bolt rear rims. Me thinks he been smokin; the rope r..MPH

It used to be the companies that built Sears tractors were Roper,AMF,and Murray.That one is a bit before my time,but it don't look like any Simplicity.

That tractor is a SS15 built by Roper for Sears, I know.... They DO have some mean weeds in New Hampshire and it has infected this guys mind, no doubt. Sandy

Not a Simplicity. I've got a 12 Hp version of this machine sitting in my back yard. It is a "Roper"! Very popular tractors in these parts. I've seen plenty of them. Rod H.

Seller has corrected his adv.. This tractor was listed awhile ago. I had posted it as an ebay mess up. This & $1.00 might get you a small Coffee Maynard aka/UCD
