I attended the local annual Gas & Steam show at a nearby agricultural park last Sunday. As usual there were lots of vintage tractors and vehicles, plus a variety of old steam and gasoline pumps and weird machinery. It is close by and usually has something new each year. This year there was a really neat old 1914 police truck that was used in New Hampshire until 1927.
This truck is in great shape and runs nicely.
Another item at the show that I found interesting was a 1937 farm dozer. Just a little older than me.
This little guy was used just like a regular farm tractor but had better traction and a pulley on the rear for operating other machinery.
Of course there were a few nice Peerless steam tractors as usual.
Another old unusual gasoline tractor.
And I had to take a photo of this tractor - the money pit.
These guys buy old tractors and restore them as a hobby and it is not inexpensive, hence the slogan on the side of the tractor.
This event is always fun and each day concludes with a parade of the tractors a vehicles. Of course I always buy a plate of funnel cake to eat while watching the parade.
