      Here's a Toro:


      Might be a Santana.

        looks like it might be one of these:



        Its the only one I found that has 6 bolts holding the covers on vs 4. This is a Heystee I believe

            Thanks for the input, gentlemen.

            It sure looks like the Heystee. Although it could be the Santana as well (I am not a member of that forum, and was unable to see with a few mouse clicks, the photos). Yorker, could you just copy and paste a pic? Thanks a bunch.

            The sticker on the end the shift lever has two settings, and reads: to the front, "Superdirecta" and to the rear, "Normales". I am assuming this means, "Overdrive" and "Normal". And with the Spanish persuasion, I would guess a Santana, since the pic that Yorker provided probably looks like it also, but I couldn't view.

            Thanks for your help, again.

            Yorker, nevermind the copy paste thing, I had a moment of clarity and stopped being dumb for a moment enough to just sign up for the board.

              If, the gentleman in that post is correct, about the manufacturer, then it is certainly a Santana.

              Thanks again.

                Cool !

                It is a good board, a few people from here post on it, myself(MPi-KMS-72) included.

                  They have a reputation for being very robust.
