Wednesday Tractor

[Majorman]

Fordson F

Fordson F into which someone has shoehorned a Perkins P6. Nicely done but another one of those tractors that I ask myself "Why"? Even back in its day, these tractors could wind themselves up and over when pulling with the worm gear final drive. You do have a bit heavier engine up front but you also have, possibly, double the original horsepower.

I'll say, why not? The tractor would still beat following a horses rear end all day, and have electric start too!

That beats the doodlebug I saw at a show last fall. It was the front half of a Model A connected to the back half of a Fordson.
