We'd love to hear your thoughts, feel free to leave a comment below. 1. THEY ARE COLLECTORS ITEMS The introduction and subsequent evolution of the working tractor was an exciting period of history, with numerous manufacturers competing and sometimes combining to bring the next best m

Model: Minneapolis-Moline ZTS Registration: CSV556 The Minneapolis-Moline ZTS is a standard-tread tractor built in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA. This is a 4-cylinder, liquid cooled petrol tractor. The so-called ‘Prairie Gold’ finish of the tractor against the red grille and wheels made this tractor instantly recognisable. The ZT series tractors were built from 1939 to 1947 with three model variants: ZTU was the row crop variant ZTI was the industrial variant ZTS is the standar

We are excited to share the latest addition to our personal collection, which was purchased from a fellow collector in Devon last week. The Case L was built between 1929-1940 in Wisconsin, USA. A total of 31,678 were built and this model would have been purchased for around 1,500 USD. It is a striking tractor with great presence and a powerful sound to match! The Case L model was fitted with a 6.6L 4-cylinder engine which would have made this an extremely powerful tractor for

Well what a year it's been. Nobody could have predicted what 2020 had in store for us, but we have made it through! Whilst we may have had big plans for this year; attending local vintage rallies and hosting our very first open day, like everyone this year, our plans have been put on hold. But we're certainly not going to dwell on all the things we weren't able to do, when we have so many achievements we can be proud of this year. Despite the restrictions, Tamar Vintage Trac

Tamar Vintage Tractors are very proud to present this Rumely Oil Pull Model X. The Rumely Oil Pull was sold between 1909 and 1930 by the Advanced Rumely Company. They were powered by an internal combustion magneto fired engine which is designed to burn kerosine of any grade. The Rumely certainly has quite a presence. Watch our video below to get a full insight into this incredible historic John Deere. You might also enjoy our instructional video on how to start the Rumely Oil

There are some tractors we come across at Tamar Vintage Tractors, which we just can't seem to part with. That could be due to the rarity of the model, the originality of the tractor or it could just come with a really good 'back story'! This 1942 Ford 2N has earned a place in our collection due to its originality and the fact that it played an important role in the wartime efforts. This classic tractor was purchased by Tamar Vintage Tractors in 2019 from a seller in Okehampto

Welcome to the latest instalment from Tamar Vintage Tractors as we present a few of our favourite tractors from our collection. This week we are featuring a very well presented John Deere Model R. This classic John Deere was purchased by Matt Young in 2019 from West Devon, although very little is known about its working life. The John Deere Model R changed the face of John Deere tractors. It was larger and more powerful than any of its predecessors and was the first diesel tr

Matt Young of Tamar Vintage Tractors is delighted to present this 1931 Rumely 6A. The 6A was the last Rumely model ever made before Allis Chalmers took over the company. The remaining 6A models were assembled by Allis-Chalmers themselves, throughout 1931. The Rumely 6A has a unique six-cylinder engine which was built by Waukesha to Advanced-Rumely’s specifications with a three-speed sliding gear transmission. Matt stumbled across this tractor locally, in West Devon and it is
