I have a few friends in Kansas that do nothing but restore crawlers, the know this tractor very well and said that this was known as the McCormick Deering "Experimental" tractor, as they were feeling out how to build a crawler. Maybe I got some bad info, but these guys are very sharp when it comes to old crawlers. When I bought it I called them before the auction and they said to buy it for there were only 1500 produced between 1928 and 1931, 2 weeks later everyone that has ever heard of one has e-mailed me and confirmed that to be true. So I would have to stand behind thier statement to be true that this was an experimental tractor. I deal with Heavy Equipment on a day to day basis, when I lived in Nevada, Caterpillar came up with an experimental Motor-Grader which was the 24H, The first one in the USA was demo'd at Barrick Goldstrike Mines (i'm told). If you have different info, please share it with me THANKS
