Jan from Sweden sent me photos of his tractor. Jan has a
blog (http://skogsliv.wordpress.com/ ) about his farmhouse restoration. When he bought his house guess what he found
in the barn? A Heinkel Tractor!

This one of a kind tractor clearly started as a Heinkel
Kabine. The body probably rusted out,
and someone took the running gear and incorporated it into their own
creation. I’ve been helping Jan a little
bit with suggestions on how to get it going again, but it sounds like the engine
is stuck, the swingarm is jammed up, and I’m sure there’s a few more surprises
from sitting.
I especially like the dashboard (with another paper insert
in place of a clock, like the car at the Bruce Weiner Museum). It also looks
like they utilized the entire front suspension as it was in the car.

The back is a different story. Jan told me when you turn one of the rear
wheels forward, the other rotates backwards.
Jan is deciding what to do. If you have any suggestions, you
can contact him via his blog.
Thank's for sharing my picture and thank you for all help and support so far Shawn.
