The Fordson Tractor Pages Forum

Hello everybody,

I'm just back from holyday’s at the Ardeche France.
Just two kilometres up the road were our camping was, I spotted this one.
Now is this a new way to store newspapers or is it to protect the tractor from the weather?

Even the house was stuffed with papers and a view meters up there was an old Renault 16 car. And it was also in use as a paperclip.
Who ever has read the story's of Astrix and Obelix (two France warriors against Caesar’s army) knows they say "Strange peoples those Romans", but the France can be also a bit strange.
The tractor is probably a Fiat or a Someca.

Henk, thats really strange. Some of the things hanging off of that tractor look like clothes.
I remember, years ago I borrowed a hay truck from an old rancher, and I had to go into his house with him to get the keys, or something. The whole house was full of neatly stacked newspapers, with just little paths between them to get to the other rooms. Maybe these guys are some of his distant relatives.
