Minneapolis-Moline Farm Tractors

Description

Formed in 1929 by the conglomeration of Minneapolis Steel, Moline Plow, and Minneapolis Threshing Company, Minneapolis-Moline gained a reputation by introducing high-compression engines, the heated cab, and a startling corporate color dubbed "Prairie Gold" to the world of farm tractors. This color history of Minneapolis-Moline's 40-year run offers a brief overview of the company's history and an emphasis on tractor development and model changes. Scenic color photography shows off some of the most faithfully restored Minne-Mo's in existence accompanied by the sort of hard-to-find, in-depth information that enthusiasts crave. In addition, there are period advertisements, archival photos, and an appendix of serial numbers and parts numbers.
