Lowther Company is listed as the manufacturer of Custom Tractors from 1950 until is was sold in 1952, and moved to Hustisford, Wisconsin, in 1952. Production continued in Hustisford until 1954. The company's assets were sold to a Mexican firm. Custom tractors produced tractors under the Montgonery Wards, Lehr Big Boy, and, in Canada, the Rockol and Regal brands.
