Mack And Masseys

I made a flying trip over to Pinckneyville, and spent a couple hours taking pictures and video. The featured tractor this year was Massey-Harris, and there was a bunch of Massey machinery. This vintage Mack does a pretty good job of upstaging its load. Lots of hobbyists get into tractor collecting because it is (mostly) not a "Rich Man's Hobby." Tractors take a few more bucks now than they used to, but the trend I see is that money has showed up, and it is being put into fancy rigs to haul the tractors. The good thing is that you can still get into tractors and gas engines at just about any level of spending.
