Here is a link to some old farm machinery (thanks to Roy) - http://www.livinghistoryfarm.org/farminginthe20s/machines_08.htm

This tractor looks very similar to the one shown from 1929.

Great shot of a neat tractor I bet it has some storys in it

Nice shot.

Great shot. A pity it's not cared for and kept under cover.

Neet old tractor. Looks very similar to a McCormick-Deering 10-20

Looks like it hasn't moved since you were in school!

Ah, something we see here too, the odd time. Some farmers here won't let go of their old toys. :)

What year would this date back to? Somewhere is the 1920 era I expect.

I believe the lugs are simply for traction with the metal wheels, since they weren't using rubber tires with lugs.

These kind of tractors with spiked steel wheels I have never seen overhere. Are they used for a special purpose? I'm sure Jack will know ;-)
