I am almost 100% sure that this is the tractor the Dunklow (SP) brothers from Arlington, NE bought. It looks the same and they told me it was once owned by Conners. It is now called Green Acres. Runs with Nebraska Bush Pullers and some Outlaw. Dont recall seeing it out at all last summer.

it would really be interesting to trace the lineage of some of these tractors.i believe in the other post someone said the chassis chris cane is using was sullivans or cooks.

to Patches, also asking other ??? January 02, 2010 02:48PM
Patches, What I said in my above posting is Chris' chassis was Measel's and previously it was Kwiatkowski. Don Cook was also an earlier earlier Kwiatkowski "Wild Thing". The "Leadfoot Express", which I have never seen (or maybe heard of, since I grew up in upstate NY) is who? That single wheel Mini is quite the, well, shall I suggest, contraption. Who built and piloted it? It appears as if there's a turbo under a covered over carburetor? Thanks again for your input and ditto to Richard Crowell.

This IS Green acres of Dunklows (spelling)? LOL Sry if its wrong. I think this picture is about 2 yrs old and it really resembles the Doug Palmer SS.

If you look at the pinstriping I really believe its the same tractor. But hey..... could just be sheet metal

Boy has this site been refreshing to see the past few days with all of the old pulling pics!
Much better than all the bashing that happens sometimes.

I talked to Jeff shortly after he brought out White Lightnin & he told me the head came from Palmers tractor. Didn't really say whole engine...
