    Chains on tractors are for ice and snow......which doesn't explain the picture.

    I Know What They Are Used For, I Just Was Slightly Puzzled As To

    Why They Were Attached In What Appears To Be Mid Summer.

    Maybe The Tractor Is Mainly Used In Winter And Just Came Out Of The

    Shed For Some Small Task...:)



    Cheers Glen.

    yeah, and it was authentic vintage... it was either from the 40's or 50's.. I remember the tag said something like '1950's cake topper dress'... kinda regret destroying it

    Well, your nick and avatar makes you look a bit more american as well but I also saw it mentioned somewhere that you live near Rainy so I was wondering! At first I was pretty sure you were english so no worries about the speech/spelling!

    they add traction in dirt and mud too..no reason to remove them if always used on soft ground

    look at logging equipment/skidders...chains year round
