Interesting notes, that Nascar was the one Bill Elliot went 212 mph in, the Ford 9n tractor was the prototype that launched 3 point hitches, and well, there was a crapload of things I didn't take pictures of. Oh yeh, that cylindrical grinder was the first of its kind ever, uses a 24" stone.
What really was awe inspiring was the collection of stationary engines, the size of some of them was incredible.

Very cool! I always enjoyed visiting the B&O Railroad Museum in Baltimore when I was a kid. The Tom Thumb was my favorite. More recently I liked the variety of engines at the Threshermen's Reunion at Rough and Tumble.

One of the race cars in the Ford museum had a decal for "Unocal". At first glance I thought it said "Uncola"!

Terrible. All those machines just aching to go for a spin.

Harry Ferguson developed the 3 point linkage and patented it in 1928. He developed the idea from his 2 point linkage of early 1920s,
patented in 1925. Truly revolutionary for tractor design.
