Buffalo Pitts, McDonald EB, Lake Side Farms, and a whole mess o’ tractors!

Lake Side Farms Tractor


Mcdonald EB tractor

Tractors from America from the 1800s to the early 1900s. Now lemme tell ya, folks, back in the late 1800s and early 1900s, them Americans sure knew how to build some mighty fine tractors. Personally, I reckon those old-timers are the coolest darn tractors ever made. Ain't nothin' from the last 30 or 40 years that can hold a candle to 'em.

Now, all them Massey Fergusons, little ol' Gray Fergies, and them other tractors from the 1930s to the 1970s? Well, I gotta say, they're about as exciting as watchin' paint dry. And don't even get me started on how many Gray Fergies are out there—too dang many, if you ask me!

The most famous of them early tractors was probably Case, and I’ve gone on 'bout them before. But y’know, there were a heap of other brands too, like Lake Side Farms, McDonald EB, and Buffalo Pitts, plus a whole mess more.

Chevrolet Bel Air from the 1950s and Mercedes-Benz from the 1920s–1940s!

Bilde
I first got introduced to the Chevrolet Bel Air by a buddy back in grade school. He brought a car magazine with him, and it had some real nice photos of the Bel Air. This same guy lived down the street from us, and their yard was full of Mercedes and Volkswagens just sittin' around. None of 'em were much good or anything fancy, not really antiques either. This was back in the '90s, and the cars were maybe from the '60s at most. But they did have one genuine classic, a badass Mercedes from the 1920s or '30s. One day, I noticed they’d cleared that Mercedes out of their garage. They were fixin' to expand the property and put part of it up for sale. A good while later, that car shows back up, hauled in on a trailer, and lookin’ absolutely mint! I reckon they’d taken that whole ride apart and restored every piece. The neighbor was a mechanic, after all. No idea where that car is now, but I sure hope it’s still cruisin’ around as one fine piece of vintage machinery! M...

Various early vehicles from 4000-5000 BC to around 1500 AD to 2024!

Folks, Ah've already scribbled 'bout Ferdinand Verbiest and Joseph Cugnot's steam contraptions from the 1600s and 1700s and various steam wagons from the 1800s. But d'ya reckon ya know that the oldest wheeled rig in Norway's history is over 1200 years old, reckon it's from 'round 820 AD ? That Norwegian Oseberg Wagon's on display at the Viking Museum in Oslo, makin' it the oldest wheeled contraption in Norway, hailin' from 820 AD, that's 1200 years back in 2020. Some folks might argue that horse-drawn rigs ain't rightly called cars, which is fair, but they got wheels and they're a human invention. 'Sides, it's true that horses provided the horsepower, and eventually, cars took over from 'em, but remember, once upon a time, it was just horses, donkeys, camels, or our own two feet gettin' us around on land. Now, to the point, researchers reckon horse-drawn wagons were in use by us folks between 3000 and 4200 BC, accor...

Soviet, East German, and Eastern European Lada 1500 Police Cars

Bilde
(Moldovian police car) (Russian police car) (Spanish copcar) I’ve written about these cars before on my gearhead blog , back then referring to them as the Lada 2100 series and the Lada Riva. Though the original Norwegian and Nordic name for this car is more commonly Lada 1500, as most folks here in Norway know. Or Fiat 1500, which was the name of the original model since the car was originally made by Fiat. In this post, you’ll see pictures of Lada 1500 police cars from various years and nationalities. And if there was ever a truly dreadful symbol of dictatorships, it was the sight of their police cars, representing the nauseating abuse of power over their people. Funny how these regimes were also running Russian cars of such awful quality. Back then, folks had to sit on a waitlist for at least 10 years just to buy something as lousy as a Lada. Russian police cars would definitely make cool vintage rides (even if driving one these days would probably raise some eyebrows). If it weren’...
