In 1928 the name was changed to Centaur Tractor Corp. The tractor shown in the book weighed 1590 pounds and sold for $515.00. Known as the 6-10 "G", it used a LeRoi four cyl.

The LeRoi engine was complemented with an Auto-Lite starter, Zenith Carb, and Eisemann magneto. A standard automotive transmission terminated in roller chain final drives. This company was in Greenwich, Ohio.
