Roper lawn Tractors

[CHolmes]

My dad has a '84 Roper Lawn Tractor with a TEC engine in nice shape. Needs a little cosmetic care. Anyway it has a snow blade and electric lift deck and seems to be heavy duty all way around. Does anyone know if there are dealers around for these? I can't find a link but figure they must have been gobbled up by some other manufacturer and carry a different name. Anyone have one? This one is a 14 Hp I think.

I am thanking that AYP(Sears) gobbled up Roper. Not sure. I just found out today that B&S bought out Simplicity(mis-spelled?) which bought Snapper a while back. In a few years everything is going to be owned by just a few big companies.
