Would be interesting to see the drawings submitted to the Patient office. Would make a novel Scrambler.

The tractor that never was....

This is pretty cool. Makes me want to go out and build one.

Fordson

Snow Tractor 1926



Talk about ingenuity!



This is a 1926 silent film (on video) of a tractor-snow-machine invented by Henry Ford, shown here driving it.

This is a rare video of an invention that never went very far.

Wait until you see the automobile version the Chevrolet. It is all on here.


Watch the whole thing. Note the hat and tie.

Very interesting video. A museum in Davis, CA has the Fordson version.
