This small frame tractor has a tubular frame with a 5-cylinder continental engine, which is mounted at the rear of the vehicle alongside the radiator. The five-gallon fuel tank is installed below the driver’s seat. The tractor is painted with the company’s trademark Persian Orange paint colour, which was intended to resemble the California poppy’s colour.
