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.
