Final Topic-Check Out These (2) Unrestored UDLX's

1206SWMO · Jan 16, 2017

This will be my final UDLX topic for awhile..Go to youtube to find a July 24,2016 video titled"Machine Shed Walkthrough-Lots Of Minneapolis Moline Tractors"" It will not let me link it to this site..

I had to rub my eyes when I saw (2) unrestored UDLX MM tractors sitting side by side in one shed.....Does anyone know what state they are in or know their serial numbers?? I don't have pictures for these so here may be (2) more serial numbers for the list..

Before show season I will post all known UOPN and UDLX serial numbers on here...No owners or locations will be listed..In your travels to shows or to visit collectors write down the serial number for me if you run across one...Thanks...Maybe we can add a few more to the list..My email is open if you want to email me a serial number..

I might add that I have never been able to get a serial number for this UDLX and another one at the same farm in the Big Sky state...A late friend was able to get the picture of this one but was never able to get a picture of the other one..They both exist but aren't on the serial number list....I contacted the owner in the 80's but got no response..

There are possibly 5-6 tractors in Canada that I have no numbers for...

Lots of cool tractors in that shed JTS JTO two of my favorites back to the UDLX tractors my father now 89 years old since in the 1980s has told me of two UDLX that ended in salvage yard in Sanborn IA he stated the owner needed money would burn them an collected ins money. The salvage was cleaned up in the 1960s. Also I seen one in a salvage yard south of Maryville Wi this was a rear end an fenders part of motor front end off to side no hood or radiator cab was also missing ask owner about this and he knew what he had stating cab was maybe in a scrap yard as owner send hired man to town for repairs when he pulled to shop no brakes running in front of buiding damanging cab it was brought in to have brakes repaired how sad.The owner of yard was John I believe he was editor of Cockshut magizine. I stopped by first time in late 80s and went back in apox 2004 or so all was cleaned up. I asked a few poeple if they new where it went an no one new for sure. Maybe some one out here would have an idea.

There is a picture of a UDLX being used at a horse race track in the old MM Merchandizer Magazine. I do not recall what year it was shown but is was long after they were out of production.

In that video, one of the MM signs he walks by says "Winifred Implement, Winifred, Kansas" on it. Winifred shows up in NE Kansas near the Nebraska border.

Isn't there a way to contact people through YouTube and maybe email the guy who posted the video. He made it or knows who did and might get you in contact with the owner of the tractors

I saw that MM sign...Winifred,KS is between Maryville and Frankfort...Theres a huge collection of IH's near
Winifred but they've been selling off quite a few..They once had 3-4 IH 4300's and have the only 10
bottom IH mounted plow in existence..I saw it at Rantoul,ILL in 2013..

Thanks for all of these posts. It brought back a lot of good memories when I saw those pictures of Lloyd's #1 UDLX. I spent a lot of my childhood looking at that tractor as they were only a few miles from us. I really miss seeing that collection. If not for Lloyd who knows if I would be on this site now.

I drive by that collection everyday on my way to work. Usually in the summer he's out and about working on something.
