All the discussion of the Fordson powered critters got me thinking about a use that I put to a Fordson some time ago. This, a cannibalism of the Jordan Miniatures 1/87 scale kit to power a small water pump at a steam ferry wharf.

I agree chester, neat scene.
A lot of HP to powers such a small pump  ;) ;D

Well I guess the farmer found lots of uses for his Fordson other than plowing too. This from a 1924 aggie magazine. (surprising, it didn't get used up in the outhouse)

Hopefully Gordon doesn't see this before everyone gets a chance to read it.  Otherwise I'm sure it will be in one of the houses he built. ;)
Great article thanks for the post.
