Never would have guessed it either. The scale looks right. What other Ertl add-ons
will fit. You might want to work up the back 40(feet), come spring. Just hope the
crops aren't to scale. ;D

Maybe you may also need an Ertl Gravity box for hauling shell corn and other small grains?

Hay wagons can be quite handy as well....

There is quite a few things that could be pulled by our steam Traction engines, If you search "Ertl 1/16 farm implements"

I got a couple of these off of eBay based on your post Nick.

Did something similar for a tiny Hielscher TE.
Gaz conversion also possible using the cart to hold the small tank.
