Home-Built 1/2-Scale Farmall Super M Tractor
 ✖  |
I had a lot of fun building this 1/2-scale Farmall Super M tractor. I started with a 1969 Cub Cadet 106 garden tractor equipped with a 12 hp Kohler engine and 3 flat tires and a rotted-out seat.
I took all the dimensions from a real 1952 Super M and scaled them down. There was a lot of thought, trial and error throughout the whole process. I worked about 6 weeks by myself and then a retired friend worked alongside me for another 2 1/2 months. We made the hood out of fiberglass, using a wooden mold. To make the fiberglass gas tank we made a Styrofoam mold.
The mini tractor isn't exactly 1/2-scale, but it's as close as we could get. (Bob Clark, 7242 Old Tarlton Pike, Circleville, Ohio 43113 ph 740 474-5442)
