Did Chrysler build tractors ? ? ?

I need a new tractor for my farm and I heard that Chrysler tractors a good.

Is that true?

 

Yah, It was the first generation Abrahms tank. Unstoppable! Boulder in the
way. Blast it with the gun.

Really, I don't know off-hand if they made tractors. But, They probably did.
They made boats and snow-runner snowmachines and snowblowers also, as well
as air-conditioners for homes and businesses.

 

Plymouth made tractors years ago..

 

They still do, although they are semi-trailer tractors. Their
marketed under the brnads Freightliner, Sterling, Western Star. How
good they'd be at pulling a 6-bottom plow is debatable.

Now with the right attachment, a Unimog might have a chance at a 2- or
3-bottom in sand.

 

Here's something wild from the 50's: a Chrylser V-8 hemi-powered air
raid siren:

Advertised range: 4 miles. Under optimum conditions: 50 miles!

Not aware of a chrysler built tractor, but there were quite a few
"assembled" brands that used the Chrysler Industrial engine.

At least one model of Massey Harris used it (333 I think) and the
Co-Op, Norseman, and a handful of others.

 

Impressive!

 

I once owned a Chrysler sailboat, an 18-foot centerboard sloop. Nice
design, very fast, heavily oversailed ... but quite poorly built.
