I saw some pics awhile back with downsized copies of full sized tractors at that show in a Farm show Mag I would like to have some pics of them If they are there this year. If ya have time.

I plan on being there for the show. I'll see if I can get you some pics.

Are these the tractors? I like the Case tractor. I took these at the January show.

I think the trailer with the miniature tractors (as Crem pictured above) is always based in the village area along West Main St. To anyone who is attending the first time my advice is spend at least 3 days, FOR SURE A WHOLE DAY IN THE VILLAGE ONLY going in ALL the buildings, then figure 2 days to get through the fleas and exhibits, for sure see the Snow engine running and visit the Cushman Building on far east Main st and the Mack Garage. Its miles and miles and a Golf Cart sure helps. Most bring their own but rentals are available be sure to reserve one.

See you there.

They run and look like the real tractors some have Briggs Engines with the sheet metal modified to look like the tractor engines. The sheet metal and bodies are near identical but scaled down its only the engines that dont look exactly like the real tractors.

I forgot DO NOT MISS THE BATCHER (I believe thats the name) BUILDING in ther village with all the wood carved structures. You think youve seen patience, THAT GUY WILL SHOW YOU PATIENCE

Yes that looks like some of the ones I saw.
I Have a friend that his Dad built this from a Cub Cadet 149 And is actually a worker too. I don't see the JD Hi Crop on that trailer.

Roy,
There are a couple of tractors on the other side of the trailer that you can't see in the pictures. I believe there was a truck parked on that side and I couldn't get the whole side of the trailer in the picture. Also the trailer was in the shade so the picture is not as good.
Maybe we can get some better pictures at the next show.
