info on Speedex tractors?
Original Message Mar 16, 2005 7:08 am

I just recently found out that Speedex stopped production in 2002. I did find an owners' website that seems dedicated to the vintage tractors of the 1950s and 1960s but essentially no info on stuff from the 1980s-1990s. Anyone here own one or use one? What do you think of them? Are parts still available?

i have found that most attachments are built by other companies and then sold as options for whatever tractor you have .

the only difference is the colours and sometime the mounting brackets

some things will of course be tractor specific but a lot can be mounted on many machines.

I don't know why I thought Economy made PowerKing and the PK Jim Dandy and one other that I can't think of. My memory is getting foggy though.

Hopefully, I have this info correct. The company that made Power King and Economy tractors is still in the parts business, but can't manufacture tractors because of some legal problem, as it was told to me. Here is a good site for more info on Power King:
