AMC RULES 37,196 #5 Posted January 9, 2011 First I've heard of a being rebadged by another manufacturer. What's that all about? Edited to say, I wonder if this is the same tractor being discussed here on the forum back in '08? http://www.wheelhorseforum.com/index.php?showtopic=1912 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kelly 1,033 #10 Posted January 10, 2011 Is the engine stock?? it looks to have a long frame hood on a short frame tractor?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meadowfield 2,754 #11 Posted January 10, 2011 Is the engine stock?? it looks to have a long frame hood on a short frame tractor?? If you are refering to the Norlett, then no. It arrived with a 300cc JAP engine from the early 50's. This is a UK engine built by a small-ish engineering firm. It's a good old fashioned 4 stroke, oil bath filter, pull start ! It's also half the power of the original - approx 4hp, but with the 8 speed box there is loads of torque. mark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
