Invent Tractor Challenge

Posted by Emptypockets on June 25, 2005 at 10:16:29 from (209.115.216.79):

Looking for input. I would like to know how much interest there would be in setting up a challange whereby participants invent and build their own "idea" tractor from scrap parts in junk yards. The tractor must not run (can use ceased engine), just needs to look like a tractor. I got the idea from a road side tavern in Montana where they built one using spare parts from a shop clean out that they were going to throw out. I have read many a forum where people ask about how much and what make of tractor should they start with in this restoration hobby. A "make your own" would be an inexpensive way to enjoy the hobby at onset. The challenge would be open to everyone. I took down the specs on the Montana tractor and am building a spec sheet to give basic qualification to the challenge tractor. You can ask for this begining spec sheet on my web page www.nuumbnuuts.com under OTHER ITEMS - DWSI. I would like more input as to what else should be in the specs. You can reply here or reply off my e-mail link on my web page. I think it is a good idea, but that's me, I throw it out to you experts and novice you tell me.
