The restored farm tractors on the first car make this picture Pop ! The fly in the ointment, however is that the tires on the tractors should have been painted with Tire Black as they would have been delivered with new tires. During my first year in college our Industrial Education Department, arranged a "Field Trip" to the International Harvester Plant, in Louisville, Ky. Every tractor coming off of the assembly line had brand new tires. I do wonder where they found three identical restored tractors. Even today mobile equipment moving by rail or highway must be "Blocked or Chocked" to prevent movement, simply using tensioned cables alone as seen here will not cut it ! Thanks for the posting Tom.
