Hi- I'm looking for any information about Springfield garden tractors. I'm in the process of purchasing a Springfield 30 and am having a really hard time finding any information about these tractors. The guy who's selling it thinks it's a mid-late 70's model and it has a 10 hp Kohler. It also comes with a snow blade and weights, it runs, and I'm paying $200 for it. Any help, especially diagram or manual information (I'm willing to pay) would be great. Thanks!
 
I can't say I ever saw a real garden tractor made by Springfield, but they sold riding mowers 1950s-1960s. I kind of stopped paying attention though when the 1970s came around. Too modern for my interest. I worked for a tractor dealer in 1970.

Quick Manf. Inc.,3361 Limestone Street, Springfield Ohio sold a 2-wheel tractor in 1949, called the model 2001E. Had a 1.5 horse Clinton engine. In 1952, they sold some bigger two-wheelers up to 3 horse. Their first rider-mower came out in 1957.

In 1958, a four-horse riding tractor came out. They also sold some trailing, self-powered rotary mowers.

The 4 wheeler ones I have seen could be mistaken for a early small wheel horse tractor with about the same design and color. Church & Cemetary next door bought a new one to mow the cemetary with and within 2 months the storage building was broken in and the tractor-mower was the only thing taken. Grandma Bought a new 2 wheeler 3 hp tractor and that was the best tractor, the Clinton would always start on first or second pull after setting all winter, had to be sold when Grandma passed tho. Since then I have gotten a 2 hp one but have never gotten the engine running and have had several Wards and Sears-David Bradley and none are as good as that Springfield.
