"Old Green".

Green (or Old Green) is my nickname for my Simplicity Sunstar tractor.

Originally a Sunstar 14 (with a 14 horsepower engine), the first owner installed a 20 horsepower engine, a Chinese knockoff of a Honda engine, so the tractor is effectively a Sunstar 14.

The second owner posted the tractor for sale on Craigslist, where I found it.
