Big Bud 747 – Todays picture shows the worlds largest Farm Tractor at a gas station loaded on two lowboy semi-trucks heading towards Ill. to be displayed at a couple farm days summer festivals. It will be in Penfield, Ill and in RanToul, Ill. They could reach their first destination in two days.
I built two large scale models of the 747Big Bud and my models and I was mentioned in the Big Bud 747 Book that was published.
I also have several pictures of me in a Big Bud 747 Shirt standing with the owners as they looked at my model at the National Farm Toy Show in Dyersville, Iowa. Very Cool !
