I just got a Worthington Mower Co. Tractor. It is short chassis w/ 5 hole jeep wheels in the front, and 8 hole duals in the rear. All tires are 700x16 NDDC The engine is a continental F163 ind power unit w/ factory sheet metal. It was made in Stroudsburg, Pa. Can anyone tell me more about them? years of manufacture?? Thanks, DC Dale

There was a Worthington tractor company that used to build tractors from Ford Model A parts. They would shorten the frame and use Ford running gear. This may be the same company. The tractors were used by golf courses to pull mowers across the golf courses. There was an article about the company in GAS ENGINE MAGAZINE several years ago. I saw one of the Model A Worthingtons at the Paducah, Kentucky show several years ago. It looked about like a homemade "doodlebug", except for having a Worthington nameplate fastened to the Ford radiator and a manufacturer's plate fastened to either the dash or inside firewall on the passenger side.
