    1926 Snow Tractor

     



    1926 Snow Tractor

    You're not gonna believe this..............Talk about ingenuity!

    This is a really neat 1926 silent film (on video) of a tractor-snow-machine invented by Henry Ford, who is shown driving it. (I don't know about that?)

    Watch the whole thing. Note the "hat."

    In Treasurenet the second video box (scroll down) works, the first doesn't.

    This is a link to the video on LiveLeak.
