I don't know the name of it but there was a dragline sat on a neighbour's 
farm for years back in the 70s after it broke down. My brother said it had a 
Buda gas engine exactly like the one in Dad's Cockshutt 50 tractor. The Buda 
engine in Cockshutt tractors had an id tag on the left side of the block 
behind the distributor.

Bantam is what came to me too.

I hope to eventually get a machine to keep at Brownsville.
