John Deere R

Tamar Vintage Tractors - John Deere R
 
1950, the John Deere R was the first diesel tractor produced by the company, featuring a 2-cylinder diesel engine that is started with a 2-cylinder petrol "donkey" engine.
 
This particular tractor comes from a collection where it was regularly used for road runs. It has been fitted with a new set of tyres and has a current V5 registration document.
 
Both the donkey engine and the diesel engine are in good working order, with the donkey engine running strong. The tractor's tin work is in good condition overall, though it has undergone several paint makeovers throughout its life.
 
This is a unique and appealing vintage tractor that is ready to be enjoyed immediately, but it also offers the potential for further improvements if desired.
 
Based in Tavistock, Devon. 
 
Nationwide delivery can be arranged.
