Can anyone share some background information on the Janesville Plow Co.? Based in Janesville, WI; somehow related to Samson Tractor, which was purchased by General Motors. I'm especially interested in their plows, why they were reputed to be so good in competition and paint colors.

Thanks.

Janesville Machine Co. was in business for many years prior to buying out Samson Tractors of California. Not sure, but somehow GM was already involved with Janesville Machine and were interested in a tractor to compete with Ford and that's why they bought out Samson. Contact Rock Co. Historical Society in Janesville, WI for additional info. From brochures I've seen their machinery is painted red and green.
