Its great to see more crawlers at the shows these day, you don't see so many Fordson standards at events these days.

I like the tracks on the Clayton....do you think they were based on a horse shoe. :) and isn't it strange how modern agricultural machines have reverted back to steering wheels like the early machines.....
great photo's thanks for posting :thumbup:

I think the Clayton tracks are on the wrong way round. There wouldn't be much self cleaning on like that. Anybody have any idea?
