It is said that one man's junk is another's treasure and no where is that statement more true than Louis Miller's Mechanical Mart in Georgetown Texas.
I've always been fascinated by tractors and farm implements and well anything mechanical and this spot in the middle of a the historic area of Georgetown has always fascinated me. Mr Miller has been pulling these relics of our agricultural past out of fields and barns for years and assembled one of the finest collections in the country.... All in the shadow of Southwestern University and the historic Georgetown Tx historic square.
Everything from huge steam driven tractors and combines to 1950's Farmall tractors are scattered around the yard.
I like the flared fenders on this one.... racy don't you thing? Notice the huge steam driven machine in the background.
This is one of my favorites, if you look someone has combined a Model T front chassis with an early horse drawn mechanical plow. Now that's some early Aggie engineering!
Surely, you rmember the Rumely Tractor? I can just imagine how much this must have cost back in the day. At least you didn't have to worry about the tires going flat.
need traction? just bolt on these iron spikes,, no problem. You could also run a leather belt off the pulley and and run all kinds of equiptment even a portable sawmill. There are scores of these antique tractors on this private yard all owned by antique tractor collector Louis Miller who operates a repair yard at 806 E 8th Street in Georgetown Texas.
