Achto 28,060 #1 Posted August 6, 2018 (edited) Pictures from the Dodge County Antique Power Club 50th anniversary show. I'll start with the features for this year, Minneapolis Moline & Cushman A line up of MM steamers. A gentle man doing a painting of the MM steamers in front of the clubs new barn. Oil powered MM. Turning some soil with a MM Steamer. An answer for more power & traction. Some Cushmans. Following my friend while tuning soil with the GT's. It was roughly 1/4 mile from one end of the field to the other. Proving again that my Raider is not just another pretty face, it will also earn it's keep. Last year @squonk asked about the annual Economy & Red E reunion that takes place at this show every year. I remembered to get some pic's this year. A pic of part of their corral. A rare Power Queen. A custom Economy race car. My best guess here is that someone fill these tires with concrete then ran them until the tires rotted off. Then they added a metal belt with scraps fastened to it for traction. Next up uncommon & customs. A no wheel Fly Mo, hover mower. Newer but not common in our area Yamaha lawn tractor. Jacques Frazer A sweet looking home built. I hope you enjoyed the pictures. Edited August 6, 2018 by Achto 6 7 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The guys on the steamers were picking on us about showing them up. We were plowing about 2 to 3" deeper than they could. I had reservations about taking my plow with because last year at this show you could not get a plow to go into the ground.
