Strange tractors

HERE IS AN old massy

When you drove this you had to be careful not to get screwed

I like the tread on the first JD's wheels. Interesting pattern.

The Mini-Mo is the one I was looking for upthread.

But that last one, that's a very interesting propulsion system. I've seen it used on vehicles used for traveling across ice flows, but man that's definately a strange looking tractor.

I don't think it is God, more likely it is the church elders.

OK, so I found another one. This tickled my funny bone because it's not a strange tractor. Not at all. But at first glance, it is a strange looking one.

Odd front dual tires

Man, there are some strange looking tractors. I keep thinking I should stop posting here, but then I find another one that just seems to take the cake.

Not like any orange tractor I've seen lately.

Orange

I must say, I really like it though.

On this one, the plow is as interesting as the tractor.

I like the nose on the tractor. Gives it that art-deco look of speed.

And last for the night, a very neat gravely estate tractor. Never saw one like this.

Gravely Estate tractor

Gravely made this list a number of times. They weren't afraid to be interesting in their designs.

OK, I lied. I have two more Gravely's This one has a retro fifties look. I particularly like the duals on the front.

Retro

Might be because that's when it was built, but I don't know.

Extended Gravely. What more can I say.

Long, very long.

Now I'm done.

Probably.

Why did you provide each link in a separate post? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif Those aren't attachments.

Here I thought someone might have actually posted something related to the thread. Oh well.

I post them as I find them, Gatorboy.

I don't know why I didn't combine the last two. Late at night I suppose.

How about jet turbine engines on lawn & garden tractors. I can't imagine sitting on top of an engine turning 30,000 RPM...

In the realm of the more slow moving tractors, I find the wheels (tracks) on this large, articulated, case tractor amazing. I know these kits have been around for a while and I've seen a few pictures, but in what terrain do you need these? Is the teactor steering changed to accomadate the tracks?

Here's an international Payloader. Never saw anything like it.

It's a little brute of a front end loader based machine. It sure looks heavy duty for such a small machine.

Cliff you only have to look up at the current thread in projects
Don and me have going. My skid steer with good tires with great tread can barely move itself much less anything else.

I want a tracked skid steer.

Now! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
