Back in the "olden days", Sears & Roebuck had a plethora (lots of) attachments that could be used to convert yer Model T ford into anything you needed on the farm. Even a snow-mobile!
If you peruse some of the antique Ford sites, they usually have booklets for sale on this subject. One place is Snyder Antique Ford Country, in New Springfield, Ohio. I know they had booklets on the subject.
You could use the car during the week for farm or business duties, then use it on Sunday for church or riding around visiting the neighbors and relatives.
Most of the Model T tractors i ever saw were converted Model T trucks, or cars. Folks would install a Model A or later truck tranny, and a truck type rear end, with the truck wheels, and use it solely as a tractor! They would take off most of the body, leaving only the cowl to support the steering column! One was conveerted into a vegetable garden row tractor, by narrowing the front and rear axles down to fit between the rows, with an auxiliary tranny in it, and no tires, just the wheels and rims, with cleats welded onto the back wheels!
I have owned 4 of them in the past! Some worked well, one was a misfit! All got sold or used for parts for my T roadster! And, it is gone too! Too many headaches, too much work to restore it for the third time! And, i have lost my interest in restoring old cars, etc.
