    New to Wisconsin and was driving around and saw all of these and had to stop and take some pics. Not a house in site to ask if any of them could be bought. [​IMG]

  4. if you can figure out where the land is on a map, the town can probably tell you who owns it.

    I think its a zambonie I have no idea to be honest though
     
  9. The "wings" on the front emulate those used on early Milwaukee Road diesels. It's probably a kiddy train of some sort. The one thing I see there that I would grab, personally.
     
  10. any one other than me notice the two transmissions in the Model A homemade tractor???? common to change final ratio...rear tranny is installed in reverse position. tail to tail...
     
  11. No, but it's too damned cool! That'd be handy about the place.

    It changes the final ratio alright. It must have a pretty good top end.

    It and the train is the best items. Might want to check the blue ford cabover for exhaust manifolds, not sure if that year had the ram horns.

    Go to the county zoning and look at the maps to locate owner/s its all public record ....some interesting items there. Great shots, I love looking at this kind of photo essay, but it is sad at the same time to see the old timers just going to hell sitting there.
    Thanks for sharing the pics. :cool:

  24. I really like that white 56 Ford cabover and that kiddie locomotive is cryin' for rubber tires a steering system and a mini bike engine so you can drive it around like a go kart.
