Small Scale W-9

Yesterday I came across a picture on the "Badger Steam & Gas Engine Club" site of a small scale W-9 tractor that one of their members had built. Does anybody know anything about this tractor? It looks like it may have been built from a A or B or he may have started with a Shop Mule. Just curious about it as I like W-9's but real ones are too big to be practicle if you live in town.

There has been a scale W-9 shown in central Minnesota, I have a film pic of it some where. It is as good as it gets, down to a miniaturized elect box, small lights, decals, and small shift rubber knob. It has a four cyl Int engine (I believe I heard the owner say it was from a baler) This thing is awsome. It was operating a scale Avery with a flat belt. (12"cyl) also too cute. I don't have permission to show the pic, so I'll pass. Just shrink a W-9 by ~60% and there it is.

Don’t know about a downsized W-9. However on somewhat related note, the link below is to a photo of a scratch-built, quarter-scale John Deere R at the 2003 JD Expo VI in Canandaigua NY.

Engine is a 4 cylinder Perkins diesel salvaged from a refer power unit. The engine was cut in half and laid flat making it a “correct” 2 cylinder. The pony motor is adapted from a weed whacker and starts the diesel. The tractor has a fully operational clutch and transmission.

The little R is operated via radio control. The owner and his wife sit in a cart hitched to the tractor and control it via a hand-held R/C transmitter. To the casual observer it appears the doll in the R’s seat is driving them around.

At idle it even sounds kinda like an R. Fascinating machine that draws a crowd wherever it is!
