We went to a small local engine show over the weekend. It was |
|
pretty much rained out, but there were some full sized steam |
|
traction engines and this old tractor caught my eye. I don't |
|
know anything about old tractors, except that this did not look |
|
like any of the common ones I see at shows. |

Cool machinery. Transverse might be more efficient for a |
|
power-take-off. |
|
Huber is the name on it, I see. Hmmmmm. |
|
What are the chances. |
|
I have a model engine/boiler combo that is engraved 'MADE IN USA |
|
BY J HUBER SEPT 1926'. |
|
The seller only knew it was in his West coast family for a long |
|
time and that J Huber |
|
was distant uncle. |

There is a seat on this tractor, but you have to stand to see |
|
over the engine! |
