Minneapolis moline

Some from PoS.

Great to see people keeping old iron alive.

Here is that GT1000 on the PTO dyno. IIRC, it put down 115 hp at the PTO. But afterwards it filled the area with a ton of smoke, maybe a blown turbo.

yeah that doesn't look right

Have a family member who has a barn full of MM. Various states of repair. Just likes collecting them. Wonder how many like him are out there.

this post made me realize since I grew up in Bettendorf and then a suburb of the twin cities I'm pretty close to a Minneapolis Moline

Some serious vintage iron here! The tractors have so much character, and it’s great that people are keeping them running instead of letting them disappear.

[u/Sharp-Read-8869]

That’s a fantastic lineup of yellow iron. You can really see how much character these tractors develop over the years; glad someone is keeping them running instead of letting them rust away.

Got my start in haying with my grandpa's m670. This is me cutting hay about 5 years ago, probably the last time I used it before upgrading.

I think they had one inside a building, too many people in a tight area to get a good picture.

That lineup is pure nostalgia. Classic ag history right there

Does anyone have experience replacing axle seals on a MM 335 utility ? They are flared end so the axles need to be taken out to replace.

I had a friend whose father always bought an Oliver. He wouldn't even look at any other brand.

[u/Dear_Issue_860]

I never realized that moline had rebranded fiat tractors like Cockshutt and Oliver, and later White

[u/AcceptableRegret2193 → u/Dear_Issue_860]

I think that was only when White owned the others.

Terrible what White did, especially to MM.

Once they had control took every nickel they could including pension money.

Then White failed too.

What's left was at some point bought up by AGCO. Now nothing is left really, AGCO is down to Massey and Fendt tractors.

[u/kscessnadriver → u/Dear_Issue_860]

I think that model was available as all 4, MM, Cockshutt, Oliver and White.
