Holder A12Diese Fotos hat mir Mark Susbauer aus Oregon USA gesendet. Es zeigt den Holder A12 vor der Restaurierung, die er sich für den Winter vorgenommen hat. Zur Geschichte des Traktors schrieb er mir:
A little background on the A-12 I have just acquired. According to the ID plate it was manufactured in 1962. A nursery company here in Oregon imported these tractors in the late 1950's and early 60's for use for cultivating nursery stock.
Later small Kubota tractors came in to the USA so the nursery co started using those. A friend of mine acquired this A-12 from a fellow that had bought several from the nursery company when they stopped using them. I saw this tractor about 4 years and really wanted it . I had always wanted a tractor to restore but wanted something unique and different than the usual American tractors such as John Deere or International Harvester. Finally after waiting over 4 years my friend agreed to sell it to me.
I am now the proud owner and would like to restore it for showing at tractor shows. It runs however smokes and vibrates and seems to lack power. The general condition of the tractor itself is pretty good. [...]
Thanks again, Mark
