    I would have to check my files. But I havent posted any because in the spirit of this thread a tractor would be more High Tech then a horse or bicycle.

    I posted this in the Engineering thread. T.A. pointed out that it may be a wood gas converter LOL So I thought I would post it here too :).

    Yupper, that is a wood gas convertor. When I was in High School my best friend's Mom was a WW2 war bride from Weimar. Near the end of the war many of the city buses had been converted to "wood gas", and towed around those things behind them. The "fare" could be paid half in wood (for fuel) and half in coin.

    Gertrude told me that there weren't many cellars, attics or bed-frames in Weimar with their full compliment of support cross beam supports by wars end.
