Yup, the Select-o-Speed. They actually work
well, but it seems people _only_ sell their SoS
tractors when a problem crops up, and with 3
timers as many clutches in there, it can be a
real money pit to repair. If you've been the
owner forever & have taken good care of it,
then it's a great tranny. If you don't know how it
was used or abused, then it's a big gamble, &
should be worth a lot less than a good
5-speed similar tractor.

There were also the 'early' & the 'later' 1000
series tractors. The 'later' ones had 3 cylinder
engines which were better, most esp. for
diesel. I'm not even sure if the earlier style
were made in diesel, but something to watch.
