Road trip?

Saw this on Facebook marketplace. Odd 600? Can't be any taller than my 950 row crop?

That is a pretty long road trip Kevin.
Wonder the reason for the weird wheels and tires.

Richard, I can't think of any good reason. Sure didn't make it a row crop. I bet it had a specific use. If only tractors could talk!

Looks like a special-built high crop to me.

I'm a fan of skinny tall tires. My 14.9 x 46 radials have better float and traction than the 18.4x 38R they replaced on my 1066 and fit the rows much better.

Kevin, if my 52 8N could talk, I would have to tell it to shut up.
Done a lot of stupid things with it, but it always pulled me through.

Seen 8n's with rear wheels like that to make them high crops. The front end on that 600 is interesting as it looks like regular knees with special spindles to get the height. Sometimes they just put 20 wheels/tires on for the height.

Yes, 8Ns could be bought with wheels like that. Palmer Fossom had one.

Sure hope it has a Sherman under driver.
If not its going to be way to fast to be practical.
