Here is the picture I was trying to post before.

I have never seen one of these before - anyone know about these?

Ed,

This is the same tractor. I saw it at the Georgetown meet and took a picture of it. I tried to find it when you made the previous post, but couldn't find it. So, I "stole" John Smith's picture. I have also put in the link to his full page on the Georgetown meet. The crawler is about half way down.

It was made by Ray Favero. Most of the crawler is an Oliver OC-3. Only the engine (and it's assessories like the radiator) and the hood are from the Ford 8N. Ray has also done 8N's with V-8's from the "big three" American manufactures. Don't remember now which particular engines he used. He also has a 8N with Lincoln V-12 engine. It is just above the Crawler on John's page.

ENjoy,
Larry

ps The next to last picture on the page is of John riding his '47 low serial # 8N969. And the last is him with none other than Palmer Fossum and Dwight Emstrom. Dwight dosen't get quite as much aclaim as Palmer, but he has a VERY impressive collection, much of which you can see in the Peterson books.

• John Smith's

Anyways, still forging ahead with my 3200W "fan" so as to blow most of the tumbleweeds your direction. ;)
