flat head garden tractor

deere450 · Feb 15, 2015

Has anyone ever seen a two cylinder flat head garden tractor with a banjo rear end? don't know what brand if you have any information on it would be appreciated.

Are you referring to how Leroy Troy picks the banjo or the hat he wears?
It would help if you could be more pacific in your question.

Yeah, there were many. I sold my Shaw R12 that had
a two-cylinder flathead Wisconsin TE engine and I
guess what you are calling a "banjo" rear-end.

Here's the R12 I sold recently.

If there were more pictures one could tell more aboot it.
From what I see, it looks home built.

Just going from that picture, I think its homebuilt. I think the axle is probably from a truck or industrial application since it has hydraulic brakes. See the brake line in the picture.
pretty well built fenders though, It would be a curiosity if restored.

Its homemade and well built. Definately has a kewell factor. Not sure its worth the 350 asking price though.

That picture did not show when I first posted.
Looks like a Ford car (not truck) rear-end from
the 1920s. I've seen many home-made tractors that
look similar. I thought you were asking about
factory-made tractors.

Yeah had a hard time loading picture didn't know if anybody ever seen one before, I didn't know if it was factory built or home made thanks

Likewise I think its a home built tractor, using an automobile power steering pump for hydraulics the hydraulic brakes on the rear, I would bet its a very strong tractor I'd go for it.
