Canada. I am wondering if we could work something out. I know from time

I need to simplify and reduce the number of project tractors on hand.
I'll be posting various Elec-Trak tractors and more in the near future,
but first... Two unique tractors from other brands:
SEARS riding mower
https://www.ebay.com/itm/205222982061
Electric Ox garden tractor with deck and blade
https://www.ebay.com/itm/205224028089
Feel free to contact me directly cell/text 434-284-3842.

Ha! Joystick steering on the Ox! That's so cool.
I had one of the Sears electrics. Not a bad machine at all! 3x12v, though,
instead of the ET 6x6v... not the same cutting time, nor batt lifespan.
I thought I was buying another one of the Sears machines when I pursued a
classified ad for an electric tractor 25 years ago... that was the
beginning of my adventures with Elec-Traks! Long may they roll.

Wow! Your Electric Ox looks nothing like mine. When was it made? I'm
guessing yours is earlier. Is it ZTR? Mine has rear wheel drive and a
conventional steering wheel. How does it work for plowing? I'd think
the force of the snow on the blade would push the tractor back onto the
rear wheels, and you would lose traction. Front wheel drive would be
great for snowblowing, because the heavy snowblower would put a lot of
weight on the front. But I think I have the only Electric Ox snowblower
ever made.
>From my experience, one of the things that took down Electric Tractor
Corp. was continually changing the design. But this is a stronger
example of that than anything I've encountered.
Incidentally, I had a machine shop make blade tips for my Ox, and it's
possible that these are the same. I have a lot. So if someone buys
Jim's Ox I'd be happy to sell some of my blade tips.
Ken
