Trailer with a bunch of stationary gas engines driving an array of machines, from water pumps to corn shuckers to a washing machine. |

One of six Massey Harris I-330 tractors built for the U.S. Navy; this is the only one left. |
Duals??? (On the Massey) What was it for? The brown water navy? As in too thick to swim in and too thin to plow?...

Duals (on THAT Massey) = gilding the lily.
ReplyDeleteLove seein that old equipment. Theres an old steam engine show back in Ohio that I go to. Everyone has their old hit-n-miss engines, old tractors and a workin saw mill and hay rake ran off a steam engine.
ReplyDeleteThe duals might have been for a bolt-on accessory.
ReplyDeleteMy dad had a small collection of a particular garden tractor (wish I could remember the name), and one of them had a front end loader. Dad said it was supposed to have the duals to handle the additional weight of loader and the rear counterweights for same. He didn't have the duals, and ran it with less than full weights, but it was not used for anything strenuous. More of a useful toy. He had a full sized loader to back it up.
