| This is a photo of my tractor called Greyhound made by the Banting Mfg. Co. of Toledo, Ohio. There are only two year with a Greyhound cast in the radiator. My tractor was built and shipped new in 1929. The last tractor was made in 1929. The later model has Banting Machine Co. cast in the radiator. The only year I know is in 1930 before the company liquidated at the end of 1930 prior to contracting with Allis Chalmers. Greyhound came from a 20-35 Allis Chalmers, has oversized bore and fabricated cab as a Thresherman's Special Tractor. It also has large 1000 pound road wheel weights made by French and Hecht Whell Co. The weight of the tractor is 8500 pounds. I also have another Greyhound collection...
