I am assuming that back from the 20's up into the 60's that tractor factories scratch-built a number of prototype tractors before things went into production for any particular model, especially brand new models and designs. Without the aids of computers and design programs, they must have hand-built these units to make sure everything fit and worked properly, or at least as good as could have been expected. Am I correct in this? And secondly, I wonder what happened to all of those prototypes that were built. Were they stored away or sold or what? Anyone ever see one of these for a common model of tractor?
