3 pics of an "HM" tractor. Don't know anything about it. Does HM mean home made? Is that a Chevy 6 cyl engine? Nice job anyway...

Not a Chevy Stovebolt.

Shure looks like full side cover on engine.

i'm wondering how the rear wheels are fastened on,..looks like it should have some lug nuts..

John Achmann · Aug 23, 2019

Looks to be a big truck rear end. You can see the brake drum through the wheel. Those are inner budd wheel nuts holding the wheel on. The outer wheel would have big hex nuts that go over the inner ones.

Hi, what is that reduction set up in front of rad? Ed Will Oliver BC

Jeff NWOH · Aug 23, 2019

I'd say somebody spent a few hours putting that together.

johnlobb · Aug 23, 2019

I think that might have to do with the steering...

That appears to be a chain and sprocket that feeds half an early Ford rear end which is the main steering component.
The guy who built this tractor was pretty handy!
Certainly a big step above your average "doodlebug".
