Did not really know where else to put it, so here then



Me and my 4 year old son having fun on the tractor

It's not made by my dad, but some while ago by a friend of ours. But, he never got really round getting it done, so it ended up somewhere taken apart and put away. We saw it, and they were kinda like, well, take it, have fun....

So, my dad "restored" it, made some lights on it, got the engine going again, and now we have great fun with it.

It has all the good things of a tractor, 6 speed gearbox (3 low and 3 high)diff-lock, 4 wheel drive, and so on, but powered by a 602 with an one step carb on it. Throttle is manual (by hand) and in top gear, we estimate about 50 km per hour. That is dangerously fast on that little thing though, hahaha

I shot 4 little movies of us using it last days, they are fun really. On my site, www.spookeend.nl

It's not like you MUST reply to topics you have no interest in?

Ok, it's not "snail" but some nice things were created i think, and it's ok to show some nice 2cv related things to my humble opinion.

It was more of just showing really, did not think of other people showing their tractors etc as well really.........

Didn't and don't mean it offensive.

Non taken, i could have put that comment i made otherwise i must say.......

And, poll, nah, it's more like, well, not really looking for approval, just wanted to show it for fun, it's fun to me really.

It's nowhere near a cool wall, hahaha, just goofy is more a subscription, not only because my dad has a REAL tractor aswell to do all things he does with the 2cv tractor now, hahaha
