Paul Muma of Guelph, Ontario, completed restoration of his Homebuilt tractor in October, 2003. He now plans to use it for show and tractor runs on nice sunny days. As it is quite unique, he enjoys discussing it with others who are interested in it. When purchased in Listowel, Ontario, "It was basically a piece of scrap - hadn't run in 25 years." The story goes that it was made by a Cockshutt engineer in his own workshop back in the early 1950s. It is very well built (unlike many homebuilts) with hydraulics and a 3 point hitch. The hitch pieces are definitely Cockshutt. The tractor is
powered
by a 1947 Austin A40 engine and has a mid 40's Ford 2 ton
differential.
It has been painted several colors over the years: yellow, red,
possibly
orange, and the last being gray.
