Google Rockol Tractor - lots of good info.

Also sold as Custom, Lehr Big Boy, Wards, and others I can't think of.

Its value is, the price you feel like paying for it.
To some it might be more valuable than to others.
If you want it bad enough buy it. I don't let other peoples opinion influence the things I want to buy.

"Gamble Stores", sold them also, as "Gamble"
Tractors.
I remember one block, in town, had a Gamble at one
end, a Western Auto, at the other end, and Coast
to Coast, across the street. All sold hardware,
Paint, Stoves, Refrigerators, Lawn Mowers,Cookware
How did they all stay in business ?

". . . Reguarding your question about Rockol tractors,They were actually built by the Harry A. Lowther Co. in Shelbyville Indiana.I believe they were first offered in 1947.By the late 1950's they were being built by the custom tractor mfg. co.in Hustisford Wisconsin.The Canadian tractors were the same machine except they were given different names.The tractors in eastern Canada were sold under the Rockol name and the tractors in western Canada were sold under the Regal name.One unique factoid about Customs was that they had a gyrol fluid drive transmission,I dont know if the Rockol or Regal tractors did. . . ."

What you got for tractors Harvey I may come over and buy them all for what the "value" is. OK?

Just because you feel like paying $X, doesn't mean Harvey would be obligated to sell at $X.

I do have a good day. I just don't like dealers searching the country for cheap tractors and then doubling their money on them , and also shipping them out of country. leave them for the poor honest people looking for older stuff.
now you have a good day too.
