Just acquired an old riding lawn tractor. Manufactured by Bantam Tractor Corp. of Lebanon, Indiana. Model #53259783, Serial #5R2539. Has a Clinton engine, model #v81100, serial #4575326918B. It's a 3-wheel, front wheel drive. To go in reverse, you turn steering wheel 360 and then back 360 to go forward. Original paint color is red and yellow still on some parts of tractor. Any info would be appreciated. Looking forward to hearing from someone. Anxious to restore my found treasure and identify year it is.

I know a little. Bantam started business around 1937. In 1955 that offered their little tractor in three power levels - 3, 5, or 8 horsepower. 2 speeds forward and one reverse. Was available with 19 different attachments. The was a story done on the company in the October, 1990 Gas Engine magazine.
