Ditto! What a find that would be. I know of a number of NOS tractors from closed dealers and had a chance years ago to pick up a little Broadmoor Anniversary model and a 725 that had never been started, but at the time, the $$ was WAY out of my budget. Cheers! Zip~
my dad bought one brand new back then, i grew up on that tractor mowed a lot of grass and my dad made a lot of garden equipment to go behind it a cultivator a disk a plow a roller and a planter. we had it and used it until 1981 when he sold it. it was used almost every week the whole time we had it. we did have to rebuild the differential several times throughout the years that was a weak point. the sun gear teeth would break off. i wish they made mower decks like they did on this one it was a very good design.
I hope you will show us your machine after you have completed your work. perhaps you can explain the function of the control traction differential and how well it works for you as this is the first time I and I am sure a number of others have seen one of these on a garden tractor. In addition it would be great to see you utilize the lift mechanism with attachments.
Thanks So Much for Posting This!! I’m Restoring a 1965 Simplicity Landlord and Since the Tractors are Virtually Identical, This Has Given Me Very important Information About How To Set It Up!!
When I was a kid about 10 I dreamed of having one of these and would beg Dad to take me by Moncrief's to just look at the one they had inside the dealership. They were just way too expensive for us. It would capture my attention just the same today as it did then.
I bought my first garden tractor, a '67 Sears Suburban to work our property and get some practice at hvlp painting. Many years later and I've got 5 vintage machines of various makes. It's a really fun hobby.
You know how cool it would be to find one of these today still in the crate!

I just picked one up off the curb, garage kept in great condition, rear diff just needed some adjusting. Runs great!

Now you really know what the tractor looked like back then.
Yes...will be very helpful for when I restore mine.
Man if we can go back in time and toss that box in your truck/time machine lol.
Them penny loafers took me back
Quality. Unlike today's producta
Thanks for posting. I have the 310 , very similar .
Didn't Roper manufacture these for AC? If so they may have been built at the McRae, GA plant south of Robins AFB.
They were built by simplicity
@@JandLVideos I got confused. Sears tractors were built by Roper. Simplicity and Allis Chalmers were a different bunch. But both excellent tractors.

now days this would never sell, no one would want to put it together...
