Here is an interesting web-site devoted to some lesser known machines of old. They have a nice collection of pictures, old manuals, and sales literature. Here is a link:

RFD TV had a show on last night "Classic Tractors" that showed a running restored Silver King tractor. They are kinda unusual looking with the front tricycle steering.

Interesting History!

From a tractor that I never heard about before it is certainly a trend setter. Isn't if funny how companies just don't know when they have a successful product that should be marketed.

But it certainly did set the design pace for other manufactures.
