Ol Fordson eaten by a tree

Went to look at a tractor with mr. Crum, this site caught our eye:

Really cool, someone parked that there before the tree existed. Sad for the tractor, but really cool to see! The tree was completely grown around the spokes and axle.

Thats a nice old tractor. Doesnt look too bad of shape if the tree wasnt there. Dont see many like that anymore. Everyone around here has been on a scrapping binge for the last year, they scrap anything metal they can get there hands on.

^ I hear ya. Some stuff is getting melted down that kinda needs to be around. China's industial growth spurt. Scrap metal is big bucks for salvage yards. Some stock car racers here are having a hard time, said they can't find what they need. Worth more as scrap metal than parts. IDK whats better, but am concerned for the 3-wheelers out there because I like this hobby so much.

My friend picked up a 3rd gen 250r front rim/tire/hub in great condition that someone had scrapped at the local metal yard. The rest of the trike is gone.

Cool pic though, we have some old tractor stuff laying around on the property still like this.
