1926 Snow Tractor....For the tractor lovers amongst us.

This is a rare video of an invention that never went very far. Wait until you see the automobile version it is all on here. 1926 Snow Tractor. Talk about ingenuity!
This is a 1926 silent film (on video) of a tractor-snow-machine invented by Henry Ford, shown here driving it.
Watch the whole thing. Note the "hat."
No sound.

That thing is great! Someone posted this before in the other tractor thread, I believe. I would love to get my hands on one of these!

Yeah, that is cool. Heres another video on youtube about it....

Thanks Chris....much easier to view....
I wonder if you could adapt that design to a quad.....go anywhere anytime.....

If you look closely around 6:34 you can see he takes part of the fence out!

There's no need - the modern stuff is miles above that design .. although the Fordson floats better:
