Not very darn far. Late this past May or early June, I showed up at the nascar track in Joliet to get ready for an upcoming event, and there was a group of tractors there (couple hundred I figure) of every make and model. Not quite sure what they called themselves, but made a road trip from there that lasted like 3 days (camping and stuff). Never seen anything like that before. Didn't know about it in advance, and sure didn't have a camera. I'll ask the track who they were, and if they'll do it again next year. Only seen probably less than 10 flatbeds, and unless someone parked the other flatbeds at the end of the roadtrip, there was only one way they got there, and they weren't all from nearby. Never seen so much beautiful old iron from Cubs and B's to 5020's and 2150's. Plenty of Fords, McCormicks, Cases - everything was covered. Man, that was something to see, better to partake. I'll ask and post it.
