Field Day of the Past

[chip61 664]

One weekend towards the end of September there is an event in Rockville, VA called Field Day of the Past. Antique cars, trucks and tractors are displayed. Also demos of old saw mills and construction equipment. There's lots going on the whole weekend including truck and tractor pulls. I take a truck and a few tractors up there-not a bad way to spend a weekend!  Here's a few pictures. Not as many Wheel Horses up there this year.

Got 'em loaded up



My two Wheel Horses enjoying the sun with a few other tractors. The Sears and Allis Chalmers are mine too. 



There were a couple stray horses there





Another toy I took up there



Great weekend as always. Hopefully I will have my C120 cleaned up and painted to take up there by next year.

Was a good show this year. I was their three days before the show getting the antique construction equipment ready.
I been in charge of that equipment for years now.
Nice looking Wheel Horses you have their too.
Did not get a chance myself to go wander around and see much this year. The old machines kept me pretty busy.

You've got a hand full keeping all that running! I like the old equipment and I love hearing that old Fairbanks-Morse generator run.

Didn't make it out there this year but hear that a non original C160 sold for $1200..so says a Craigslist ad!

 

It really is a great event and all those that that make it happen really do a great job like the Liesfields and Barbee Cox among the many others.

LOL yea I saw that ad too. That's his C160 behind mine in the picture.

Check out the front wheels on that round hood that is sharing the picture with the Ranger.  Notice anything???

Looks like boat trailer hubs. Also notice the weights on the other Roundie?
