Looks like something Swisher would make. I've never heard of it though. |

Still in business. Clearly, they don't build mowers anymore, but likely the same company as it's in same town. Maybe they still have records of this little rider. http://www.mono-equipment.com/contactus.htm |

Kinda figured that....all different generation working there now. Likely they dumped all the old literature & records like Bush Hog did with their GT's. All they have is some manuals...no manufacture dates or the like. Now if you could find a former employee of that day...but that is likely next to impossible. |

I always found it weird that my automotive tire changing machine was made by the same company that made some of my favorite tractors...FMC BOLENS |

Money can't buy you happiness. It can however buy you a beer. And that is close enough.
