The
company was called Rugg Corp. and was located in Ohio. This is
a 68' Rugg 5 horse riding lawn tractor.
I bought the tractor a few years ago from a farmer here in WI
who was using it to mow his lawn until the main blade clutch went
out. I bought it for the kids to bomb around on in the yard. I
guess I messed it up by painting it ford blue but the kids kept
telling me it was ugly in its original orange color. The pic
is the blue version.

It's
has a 5 HP Briggs, three speeds forward, one reverse. The deck
is raised and lowered by the crank lever under the seat. Foot
pedal on the right engages the take up pulley clutch. Parts are
still available in Ohio from a lawn and garden center who bought
out all the inventory from the closing manufacturer.
