Farm Toys
Disclaimer, there is only one Hot Wheels in the following pictures so please forgive me. As the school year is winding down, I am putting things away in my classroom and stumbled across some things I had forgot about. I have two good sized closets in my room and I tend to bring things from home and store them in my closets some times.
My wife grew up on a farm. The only time I was ever on a farm was to go hunting. She grew up showing cows and sheep at the fair. I grew up eating cows. When our boys were born, she did one of their rooms in John Deere stuff. I started buying them toy tractors. Seemed like a neat little toy and I like collecting things so the collection began. They mostly got the bigger tractors and they are stored in the garage at home but they also got a small collection of the smaller tractors and some how they ended up stored at school. I decided to pull them out during my plan period today and snap a few quick pictures. Anybody else grow up on a farm? Anybody think we could customize these and race them? :)

When using the insert image button now, you have to use a different link on Photobucket than you use to. Before, I used the bottom link that had url at the beginning of it. Now I use the second link down. I think it is called direct link.
I started to collect 1/64 scale farm equipment in 2008, but with all the other hobbies I have, I can't afford it. If we were to hold a race like that, I think it would be cooler to hold a "tractor-pull" race of some sort. This 1/64 farm equipment customizer builds custom 1/64 pulling tractors:http://www.mooresfarmtoys.com/customtractors
By the way, in the 1st picture the gooseneck trailer isn't hitched correctly. It should be in the 5th wheel hitch in the bed of that pickup.
Lol I caught that after I had put all the stuff up. You can tell I didn't grow up on a farm.
Sure we could. I have a few tractors around here somewhere...
The limitations would be the track size, starting gates and finish lines. I have a slot car track with a few hills I can set back up!
Here is the photo I do want...
