Really nice weather protection there. I'm sure it's the cat's meow for cold blowing snow.

phildirt,
What's the history of the seat enclosure fitted on the tractor, I've never seen a picture of one before and I'm interested to know more about it?
Thanks, David

These were made mainly for farm tractors. I found this one NOS in Nebraska a couple of years ago and haven't been around to try it on.
All the parts were still intact- only the plexiglas windshield had shrunk about 2 inches and had to be replaced.
It fits quite well overall and has a flap for access to the pony. It really does sent quite a bit of heat back to the operator. It does not fit just right around the crossover pipe, but is ok.
The company is still in business in Iowa. They made the side curtains for my 60 a few years ago. I have been told that they are mainly in the porta- pond business for fire departments.
Just didn't have enough to do on sunday---

Heat houser's were very popular in my area before there were cabs. Everybody said that when wind the was at your face you would burn up, and when it was at your back you would freeze to death. But it was better than nothing.
