Little Chief tractors were
reconfigured at Cockshutt's Bellevue, Ohio facility for use with
one row
cultivators in tobacco and cotton crops throughout North and
South Carolina. Tread width was 40 or 44 inches. Reportedly
only 25 were built to be sold through the Farmers
Central Exchange (FCX) in Raleigh.
This particular unit was then converted to a dual-spool control valve which allowed separate operation of the front and rear cultivators. As of 2005, the number of these tractors proven in existence is at 16 but not all are complete and operational. |
