You don't hear much about creeper gear transmissions much, but these tractors make great lay down weeding machines. The old Ford 8N with stepdown (creeper)transmission is a very popular tractor around my neighborhood for transplanting into beds because the front tires would faithfully follow the edges of the bed so the driver can jump off and sit on the transplanter. I guess the same would work for weeding. Don't over look this type of tractor next time at the auction... Bob.
