old john deere tractor
your description is correct all but 1 thing. the production tractors did not have a ford model a transmission. the expirimental model Y from 1937, was powered by a 2cyl novo engine, it had a ford model A tranny and steering. the Y never made it into production and none of the expirimental units are known to exist. The model 62 was the Pre model L production tractor. built in 1937 i belive it had a hercules engine like early model L's and no longer used ford trannys or steering parts. the unstyled ls came out in 1938 and styled l's appeared in 1939. john deere started using there own engine inplace of the herculese in 1941 and that same year the larger LA was introduced. and the LI i belive was introduced in 1939
