Porsche cars and tractors. The orange tractor rocks my socks off.

that was the racing version of the red one, which could do 20 kph, compared to the 16 of the standard one, later efforts to put on a turbo failed

Well it was front-engine rear wheel drive.

Obviously trying to compete with Lamborghini and failed.

They should stick to 2 seater, rear engine - sounds familiar

That's a neat tractor it reminded me of the cute Minneapolis Moline UDLX ComfortTractor (1938, 40mph, 3 pics below). While searching for pics of the UDLX to share, I came across this interesting page which features some amazing tractors including a turbine-powered 1957 Ford Typhoon and the incredible fuel-cell (!) Allis Chalmers of 1959

For mere trivia, my final tractor pic (in B&W) is 'Tail End Charlie', the ugly-but-effective Chamberlain 9G tractor entered as a competitor in the super-tough 1955 'Redex Round Australia Trial' rally-endurance event. (It was also in the 1956 trial) In the 1957 Mobilgas Trial it covered 11,140 miles in 19 days averaging 18.5mpg and broke all tractor distance records. A condition of entry was that Tail End Charlie travel at the rear of the trial as a 'sweep vehicle' and assist or tow any vehicles experiencing damage or mechanical problems. This time was achieved despite a roll over and repairs that took 11 hours to complete

After this brief tractor-interlude, now back to Lambos & Porsches ..
