| John Deere G |
Several years ago, I found a 1947 'new style' styled Model G John Deere in a field full of junk machinery. The tractor is in really bad shape, but the motor isn't stuck.

I check back occasionally, but I know one day, the scrap man will probably haul it away. Bob Gaddis, entered 2000-02-16
