1981 JD 4440 with 26 hours
 
Sweet! Just imagine how many could be sold if they would build it again. I know some farmers would prefer tractors like that WITHOUT the electronics to go wrong..
 
There are a lot of the 4455 Mexican specials sold around here in the 90s. Good tractor without all the electronics.
 
That is something. The way I got it from the video though it's not on display. So the average person won't be able to see it.
 
Confirmed. A copy of the work order to "mothball" the last 4020 was in the last Two-Cylinder Magazine, and I had breakfast a week ago with the guy who wrote that work order.
 
I went on a Waterloo Plant Tour back in the early 90's and at that time Deere had a new never sold 730 , 4020 and I think this 4440 on display on the factory floor at the start of the tour. Unbelievable even back then.
 
Anyone ever seen follow up on the posting from the farm sale in St. Edward NE where they were selling a 4440 with 216 hours on it a couple weeks ago? Was it Stemme auctions?
