Antique John Deere Tractors
Deere & Company began the company's expansion into the tractor business in 1912. Deere Company briefly experimented with its own tractor models, the most successful of which was the Dain All-Wheel-Drive.
Despite the severe farm economy depression, Deere management decided to build a final John Deere D prototype in 1923. The John Deere Model D was produced from March 1, 1923 to July 3, 1953, the longest production span of all the two-cylinder John Deere tractors. The first Model D rode on steel wheels with a 6.5x7.0 inch (later 6.75 x 7.0 inch) two-cylinder hand-cranked engine. It was not however the first tractor to bear the John Deere name - as a number of Deere experimental tractors, and the John Deere Dain "All Wheel Drive" tractor (of which approximately 100 were produced during 1918 through 1919) had all carried the Deere name before the D.
Another new tractor which followed the D was the Model C. This came with a 312 cid engine which put out 20hp and came equipped with 3-speed transmission. The Model C was made during the years 1927-28.
In 1947 John Deere opened a new tractor factory in Dubuque, Iowa, built to produce The John Deere M. The John Deere M tractor was created to address the increasing demand for small tractors and to compete with the increasingly popular Ford and Ferguson Tractors. It was the first Deere tractor to use a vertical 2-cylinder engine, with a square bore and stroke of 4.0 x 4.0 inches.
The 1930's and 1940's saw a large number of different John Deere Tractor models, as small farming turned from horses to mechanical tractors.
