Bottle 421 - Farmall

Date Added: February 15, 2006
This is a very well made tractor and farm cart built in a bottle. The tractor is not marked or identified but is painted red and resembles a 1940's Farmall A or perhaps 1940's McCormick Deering model. The tractor is painted completely in red except for the tires, steering wheel, cylinder lift, and exhaust which are all painted black. The motor housing is open with the motor parts showing. The seat and steering column are on the right side of the tractor rather than the center. The tractor is a tricycle type with 2 wheels rather than a single wheel on the front. The tractor is pulling a farm cart which is also painted in red except for the wheels. The cart is open in the back with sides that round toward the back. The bottle is sealed with a red painted cap similar to a regular coke top. The bottle sits on a wooden plinth. Under the stand are the words: Bob Brown "2006" referencing the builder and the year the bottle was built.
