[D2Cat]

Didn't know where to put this, but it is different.

Here's the link should you want to bid.

Damn D2Cat - you find some neat stuff!!!!

Talk about getting a birds eye view!

I call that a high crop tractor! Still looking for the ladder to get up there!

Well it's pretty clear which side is the driver's side on that one!

It reminds me of a deuce-and-a-half that the Buffalo Canoe Club once had. They could drive it out into the lake and fetch the yachts for winter storage.

What no 4wd?

I would not want to drive that on the grades and hills around here.

 

[Lil Foot]

That is cool! I love the weird stuff!

Looks like steering not connected....no draw bar. What are we straddling?
Wolfman, I can see an end-o on my property on the level part.
It is too short for hops! damn

2500 bucks it is yours, may need a bit off modification. You have the equipment.

It will be easy to change oils and filters.
But the cost of custom attachments will be "high."

I have no idea what I'd do with it, but it would make a great parade tractor!
Need about a 5ft drop hitch to pull a float.

Hmm, where is the ROP safety ? [emoji15]

I'm not sure what you see to indicate steering not connected.

Maybe some wheel spacers will help with stability.

It's just an unusual arrangement:

As for ROPS, it looks like there's lots of room to install one underneath the tractor...

 

[D2Cat]

Torch, for this model ROPS would be outriggers.!

If that thing was built today, OH&S would probably require a 5 point harness in place of a seatbelt and a safety cage around the ladder as part of a complete fall-arrest system.

 

[Lil Foot]

And a ladder fall harness & gyro stabilization!

Ad says it was made for tomato production. I would have guessed brown silking corn with drop nozzles. Seems pretty tall for tomatoes, but I've never seen them harvested or planted mechanically.

 

[mendonsy]

That model should make installing a mid mount mower a lot easier!

 

[Tooljunkie]

Definetly and oddball. Very cool though. So is this.. called a skyroad

 

[skeets]

Ahhhuuummm did he say HOPS?
