What man acomplished back then was so cool...
My guess was this was somewhere in the UP. Very tall snow and it says "Archives of Michigan" in the beginning of the vodeo.

Enjoy:

Can that thing hit 70' gaps?

Has it been backflipped?

Admittedly, very impressive.

That poor horse Skippy didn't spare the whip.

I don't see it EVER being backflipped. But yeah for it's time I think it was pretty impressive.
Thought the same about the horse. Man they were abused animals back then. Like a bic lighter...throw it out when it's empty or broke...

I wonder if those drums had replaceable bearings or if it had working hand warmers (maybe those features came with the 1927 model)?

Yeah so we should not feel so bad...the handwarmers on the 26 models were crap too. Snow suit looks a little chilly as well...

This was posted here a few weeks back. Well, this year at least, and not 1926.
LOL

That dude was way too harsh on that horse. That horse should have kicked him in the nads.

Seriously...somebody needs to put two small versions of those screws side by side under an Apex, then fab up some sort of a monoshock like a dirtbike to mount between them. Turn the motor 90 degrees and direct drive 'em. How sweet would that be!!

I bet that 1926 model had some kick a$$ handwarmers

That monstrousity is where the wheels for one of the "Bigfoot" monster trucks came from

Impressive to say the least, considering the weight of the tractor or the car!

 

[SLEDSTART]

I still want one!
