After a lengthy stop-over in Nairobi (Kenya) where the tractor was again checked through thoroughly, it is now back on the road. Wherever you go: The dog named Kos and a Play. For the idea for this journey of the young author was writing:


As a theater-maker, I had the idea for the trip of a little girl ens on a tractor. A trip to the end of the world and back. But where is the end of the world? If I were a child I would say: The South Pole. As adults, I say: The most terrible war-shaken e country I can think of. Both parts - the child and adult - said we want to go.

A few more months, then the Cape of Good Hope is reached. Then dog costs remain. Tractor driver and then go on board an icebreaker, the South Pole.

The tractor itself has a checkered history. In an e-mail from Africa "global tug of writes Manon

the tractor I got originally sponsored by a farm equipment dealer in my home village. This was for my "test drive" to Paris, where I wanted to drink a cup of coffee under the Eiffel Tower. I told the man right from my great Southern-plan and I think he is smiling in the total here because he thought it was a good joke. He then gave me a tractor which he knew he could make a trip like this. This was confirmed to me on the trip the way many farmers and farm equipment dealers. Everyone knows and told me that would go as a German tractor of the old school never broken. However, I have no one to tell that I travel the slowest tractor in the world would - but he broke me is gone, in fact, never. Otherwise I do not know much about its history. Before I got him he was needed only as Zufahrzeug for the annual carnival parade. Beverage cans in the tank and the tractor had been decorated as a giant duck. Later I found out that my tractor of a type which was only built in 1976 and was later modified. In Belgium, they told me that I have square cylinder heads! "

Now that the Thieman is restored, to keep maintenance and repairs within limits. Although the distributor like rust because it is exposed unprotected to the elements above. But otherwise, looks forward Bill, "he runs around and a very balanced engine. All fairly easily -. A nice unit for parades and exhibitions "


The affordable all-purpose tractor priced in this prospectus to the Thieman - during the Great Depression, a strong argument.

unique driving experience

Driving the Thieman is for Bill every time a little adventure: "It feels never really sure. They were kind of dangerous, prone - probably because of the light front - to back überzukippen. How the basic car, the Thieman three forward gears and one reverse gear, but with only one front wheel everything is very shaky. "I would not want him to use as a working tractor, waving from Bill:" But then it was holding so that they could rebuild his car cheap in a tractor. "
