    Purchased at an estate sale. Obviously has seen better days as it has been exposed to weather and has some rust. It is 6" long and painted green. I can see inside a short way, and can see what appears to be the letters UC or UO. I don't want to attempt taking it apart to see if I can find anything else. No markings outside. It is a project I have taken on to try to identify it, but no luck so far.

      Welcome to CW imsoexcited, We have some toy collectors here that are likely to know something abut this. Stick around we see new old things all the time.

      Any assistance in which I can verify by source will be greatly appreciated. I expect to get varying opinions and they will be appreciated, but I really need to be able to go to a book, picture, or article produced by experts so I can confirm the maker. Thanks in advance to all.

      There is a threaded bolt with a straight screw type slot that is the flywheel that holds the tractor together. There is no coin slot on top. The body is hollow; I was only allowed 4 photos or I would have shown a bottom view,

      I came across a photo of the same tractor from a past auction (High Bid Auction...Sparta, WI). Hopefully, they will provide some information. If not, I will continue seeking help.

      Looked a hundreds of old tractors without seeing another like yours it must be rather rare, please let us know if you find out something.

      I have received no response to my inquiry to the auction service that sold one just like it in the past. My guess is that they knew nothing about it as is the case with some things sold at auction where proper research does not occur.
