I am thinking that this is a Model F tractor which seems to have been the tractor of choice in 1923! It was the first tractor that was mass produced. It had to be hand-cranked to help it start, as the oil would tend to congeal.
The tractor is part of a permanent display of the agriculture of Spain at the Science Park. The majority of the display is about making olive oil and how it is pressed.
