Marine Iron Works designed the "Mighty Man" garden tractors for small suburban farming. The "Mighty Man" tractor, designed by B. A. Winter, a top aviation engineer, had an automatic 5-jaw clutch, and a nickel alloy steel helical gear reduction unit. Its free floating axles helped absorb shock loads. Marine Iron Works had just began producing these tractors in 1946. View of four wheel double disc garden tractor. TPL-8559
