This old lady, a Massey Harris Pony, was cutting lucerne on a Karoo farm, until a few years ago. Did I say a few years? Judging from the amount of dirt she is standing in, it may have been more than a few years. She has been pesnsioned off in a shed, alongside the now fallow fields, but her owner is convinced that if she is given a new battery, she will start without any trouble.
Spare a thought for the poor driver who had to spend his day in that seat. Having ploughed many a furrow sitting in a similar seat, I can assure you that they get very uncomfortable after a while. At least the instrumentation was simple.
These tractors were produced between 1947 and 1957 and I believe that they have become collectors items. She just looks like a project waiting to be lovingly restored.
