    Love this video. I grew up on a 47 M. My older brother has that tractor to this day. It was very reliable, it has never had any major engine work done on it. The engine is exactly as my Grandfather bought. I love the sound of that tractor.

    I’ve got a 47 M. I love that tractor. I hope to eventually get a 51 MT to go with it. Great little tractors.

    Boy this is going back, I'm 64 right now, when I was a youngin about 10 or so I remember the county ditch mower being an L or LA. Of course i walked out and he stopped and talked, said that the sickle mower on the JD was his favorite and he could mow more than the rest of the crews with the JD mower

    We had a 48 MT for several years. In 1962-3, it wqs traded for a '40' which we kept until dad's retirement in 2008. In all those years, it needed no repair except for very basic maintainence! So reliable!!

    I’m glad you were able to cover the LA. I had mentioned in a comment before about my great grandfather having one. Well he passed away 2 weeks ago and it looks like I’m inheriting it as well as an early 40s cub. He was an expert on these old deers and IH’s and I hope to restore them and use them to grow a nice garden.

    Thanks for the video! I've owned a 1944-LA & a 1953-40S, currently own a 1944-H. Put a lot of miles on an MT hauling hay from farm to farm as a teenager in the late 1960's.

    Great information! I’ve got two 1950 MT both in original and running condition. Currently restoring one for show use. If you ever visit the heartland, stop by the American thresherman association show in Pincknyville Illinois and get some hands on time with one! It’s the third weekend in august every year.

    I love this video. Great history as it showed me where my grandfather’s H fit in on the development timeline. The reference to the competing Ford 9N helped as well. The first tractor I ever drove around the farm as a very young kid was a Ford 8N. As the farm operation grew, the 8N was not used much which allowed me to drive it around a lot. The 70 John Deere was just too big for me. 😆

    At the Torrance California office of Deere you can see two of these tractors on display from outside of the building. There are not many farms around here anymore, but you do see a lot of Deere construction equipment being used in Southern California.

    I have a 1949 M project tractor and I have a lot of fun working on it!
    my grandpa had a JD 40 so I'm looking forward to the next one too.

    I've seen an L but never an M. Very cool video. Having moved to the Carolinas almost 8 yrs ago, I see a lot of 420s down here. I'm told that was the main tobacco cultivating tractor here in the 50's and 60's.

    I love the smaller John Deeres. I have a 1939 John Deere Model L, such an amazing tractor! I got it after my dad got his 1941 L since I loved his so much.

    After this utility tractor video do one on the mid 1980s Horicon, Wi built 655, 755, and 855 tractors. First utility tractors built in North America in decades. Later running out of room in Horicon the line was moved to a new utility tractor plant in South Carolina. These tractors broke paradigms in controls, live independent PTO, jump on an off loaders, and more. In the after market they still bring high prices for machines 35-40 years old. Now Deere has a much larger line of utility tractors but the foundation for this success came from the 55 series tractors built in Horicon, Wi.

    You know, if Deere kept up with the vertical engine, and the foot clutch, they could have went bigger with the 62 design. And they could have probably made the 4010 and 3010 in the 50s and the 30, and 4020 in 1960. It would have been a pretty massive step for them

    • @LocustMotorWorks
      @LocustMotorWorks  6 месяцев назад +1

      Definitely would have been interesting to see what Deere would have come up with if they would have done that.👍👍 thanks for watching

    What amazes me about the early tractors & steam engines is the low horsepower they had. My riding lawnmower at 15 HP has more HP than a lot of them and weighs A LOT less but those old tractors could pull a lot more than my mower can. The only thing I can think of that accounts for this is how the power is produced, as steam pressure is very powerful and the 2-lunger JD engines had tremendous staying power and almost could not be stopped. What's your idea about this?

    I have a bit of a question and an idea about the models L and LA.
    Is it possible to mount a model E or W engine on the L or LA for extra belt power with that extra space in between the controls and the engine compartment?
    Just asking though.

    No matter the Tractor model Deere just couldn’t get the two Cylinder concept out of Their Engineering Minds. Even when They purchased a motor from an outside Manufacturer ( Hercules ), it had to be two cylinder.
