Prototype Where? When, What is going on?

[daifly]

I had and restored a 1943 DB VAK 1 tractor and although similar the ones in the picture have the cranked in air intake to the oil bath whereas mine had an upright pipe with a mushroom top to it so I think these tractors are VAK 1As. The later Cropmasters had a different casting to below the pressed steel radiator grill, originally the VAK1 had a cast iron or cast steel grill which was often broken in pieces.

Ex tractor fan !!!

This made no sense until I realised that you were referring to the photo from two years ago at the top of this thread!!
