Tractor Tuesday: Sunshine Harvester Works

Sunshine Harvester at the Turtle Mountain Flywheel Club
We’ve got a new feature here on SundayCruiseFever.com, called “Tractor Tuesday.”  Each week, we’ll feature either a piece of old farm equipment that we’ve come across, or something new from the major manufacturers.  Heck, we might even take some liberties and show a few pieces of industrial equipment from time to time.

First up is the ultra-rare (in Canada) Sunshine Stripper Harvester.  Sunshine Harvesters were the product of Hugh Victor McKay, an Australian farmboy-turned-blacksmith-turned-industrialist.  His equipment, although incredibly popular in Australia, didn’t catch on in the rest of the world.  This particular example was most likely built by a Canadian firm, licensed to build the Sunshine harvester on their behalf.
