I need to know what they used to call the old 2 wheel tractors used for small truck farms and gardens in the 30s,40s, maybe 50s. They were basically a differential with a 3.5, 5, 8 etc.H.P. motors mounted above and in front of the wheels with long handles out the back. Usually had 2 large levers mounted between the handles that you would pull back for forward and reverse. The wheels were tractor tread but a lot of them had car tires mounted to them. You would hitch up the equipment you were using and walk behind them but some would have a seat on the equipment. My brother and I in the 50s put tons of miles on dads tractor pulling a goat sulky in the summer and a sled in the winter. It never failed to start and never missed a beat. I want one to pull the grand daughter around on a sled with. Dad lent his to a "friend" in the 60s and about a year later he traded it in on a new push mower. I can't beleave dad didn't bust his head over that one. I think they were called Mules. Anyone see these for sale anymore and about what do they get for them. Thanks.
