John Deere Series

Sometimes, bringing these old girls back to life can be challenging. You’re going with the idea of knowing in your head what they should look like, but reality sets in once you start and you say to yourself oh boy! 

Anyway, I love the new generation series Deeres, my dad bought our first 4029 diesel back in 1964 and that’s what I grew up on. I guess that’s where my love of these came from. I now have one of my own and have done a John Deere 2510, a JD 4020, two more JD 3020’s and a JD 4320. Lots of work but great to know they probably will survive another 65 years!
