G'day nath,
This is interesting!
I'm not a Cox man so you'll have to forgive any silly questions or observations. I've never seen that particular body shape in a Cox. Does the body shape match the engine age?
The idea of a creeper gear intrigues me. The idea of dozer blades and other attachments on the early ride-ons was all the rage and a bit of a gimmick (?). But if you were to get serious about trying to use a blade attachment then a creeper gear is very much needed! Assuming it's a factory thing and not somebody's very clever modification, I'm guessing it's pretty rare!
Something I've noticed about your collection nath is that you have an excellent collection of rare items........and attachments!! You have a gift for knowing what's collectable. I suspect this Cox falls in this category.
I think I'd like to know more about this machine.
Well done!
Cheers,
P.S. Thinks: hmmmmm, the Cox brand has not been explored very much at a history level in these pages........hmmmmmm
