Can you ID this rototiller?

http://mem.tcon.net/users/5010/5491/oldbstiller.jpg Anyone recognize the brand of the old tiller I just picked up? No numbers found yet, but I plan to scrutinize it next weekend. It runs, but the throttle cable is mostly missing, so it is not fully controllable right now. The engine is a Briggs, but I don't believe the carburetor is the original. I want to be able to get this set up and adjusted to use for my gardening. Any tips appreciated. Thanks.

After I think about it MTD owns Troy-Built. Toro sucked up Wheel Horse a few years back. At any rate at the time that tiller was built, all of them were competitors! Greg |
