Maybe I'm a couple of days late on this one, but I just found it on ebay and I thought it was interesting, scrawl down on the page and there is a video of it in action.

I am no expert but it looks all 26/27 to me. But it still is cool looking.
I think that car (tractor) was listed before on ebay and I believe it was at a car auction just lately. Apparently they want more than people think it is worth
Nearly ten grand seems kind of steep to me, too.
I believe it's in Hemmings too. Been around a while. Apparently no takers. Not many small farmers left I guess. + 10G's alot of seed.
It would be a lot more interesting if it were cheaper and in better condition.
I'd bet that is the 5th or 6th time they have had that on eBay. It never sells.
Just curious, what could you do with it beside a tractor show ever now & then? For me, after the novelty wore off, that thing would take up a lot of room and probably collect dust.
Well, I bet its geared low enough for mountain driving! (grin). Too much, especially when you can buy several restored Fordsons for that price.
I think the idea behind that kit was plow during the day,drive the car to town at night.10 grand is a bit pricey but those kits aint common any more.
