Tongue weight is certainly not an issue! Surprised at how fast a tractor can go on the paved road, which is more common in Europe.

Ya Vol, the German autobahn tractor. A true utility T V.
Happy to run that less expensive farm diesel.

Cheers Richard

I do not think this is a stock tractor. See another example of fast tractor

That's not a stock tractor, that's a custom vehicle. I grew up on a farm and have yet to see a tractor that can go faster than 30mp/h.

Check out the 1938 Minneapolis-Moline UDLX, plow fields, go to town for groceries and feed, and tow your new 1938 Airstream in comfort.

I'm thinking you need to add a vintage airstream to your collection to go along w/your Vintage PickUp

That's fine of course, but I'm thinking your bambi needs a parental figure to hang out with . . . something like a Flying Cloud. Or maybe a Sibling, like a Safari or Caravel . . .

Anyway, that "generation" ford truck is probably my favorite . . .
