First look for me at some of the early 20th century French models. Was Renault the dominant tractor manufacturer during that period of time? I see an American made McCormick-Deering there as well. I have 3 antique tractors myself. Two of these are tractors that I operated on our family farm. Keith thank you so much I do not know exactly if renault was the first French tractor, but Sunday there were many old Renault tractor.In my opinion, I think that renault was the first at the time, or the most popular, in France.some were very well restored, they are like new, like Mc-cormick gray is like new, are the owner who restore it to 25 years 3 hours ago, Roger Zimmermann said: It's like Hershey in France! Are all those vehicles for sale or just for exhibition? thank youon Saturday there was a lot of tractor (and car) for sale, and on Sunday when I went there, there was still tractor for sale and many others that was on display 1 hour ago, oily rag said: It reminds me of my days in South Dakota.

8E45E Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Thanks for those photos! Very nice variety of farm and industrial machinery and of course, all the vintage cars. I can't say I've seen that many late '40's Hotchkiss's together before. Craig 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They makes me want to take a trip to France to attend one of your shows! There appears to be a huge variety of cars from all over Europe, including some obscure ones hardly ever seen here in North America. The Schlumpf collection would definitely be on my list of things to see while in France.

R Walling Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 It seems to be that people in France want their antiques to look like antiques, unlike in the US, everybody repaints then and make them look like new. I personally enjoy an old tractor that looks like it just came in from the field from plowing, rather when it came off of the showroom floor.

Craig thank you so much ! in fact at the exhibition of vehicles there is a large choice of models of vehicles coming from all over Europe, one also sees very current vehicle like for example the " renault Prairie ", one sees it rarely.
