Yes it was a 4 wheel drive 48" tread, steel wheeled with rubber lugs owned  
by Paul Bendure of Fairview, PA. All the castings had been smoothed out,  
stainless bolts thru-out. Pretty much over the top.  Made a nice display  but 
more than I like to see on a tractor of that vintage.  To each his  own!!
