What years were the Moline Universal tractor built, this is
thw ones with the drive wheels in front under the engine>
The back end was just a transport dolly to be taken off
when using the plow of other implements and hooked direct
to the implement. I do know the early ones were supposed to
have a 2 cylinder engine and later ones a 4 cylinder
engines. My Grandpa had one And I am guessing he did not
have it long as Mom said he traded it off after it about
dump him into the creek I am guessing he probably was
trying to pull a horse drawn disk instead what was made for
it to be using. Mom told me he traded it off on a Mogul,
don't know model that he traded on a new 1935 John Deere
B.. Don't know if he traded it on the 37 John Deere G or
the 41 John Deere B that would have been last tractor he
ever bought as he died one month after I was born in Sept
of 1943. He would have been about 80 years old. I had the
orignal owners manual for that Moline until I moved about 4
years ago and it and some other keepsakes disdsapered.
Anybody know what year they went from the 2 cylinder to th
e 4 cylinder engine? Anybody have any good pictures of one
of thse tractors, or any of the implements?
 
I don't know what years they were made. But if it is pictures you want, I think you can just search Moline Universal and you will find some.
(Google searches work best. All the others want to do is sell you something.)

p.s.: They were meant to use whatever horse drawn equipment you had, such as the disk you mentioned. That is why they were front wheel drive.
 
Not sure but I believe they were built around 1914 through 1920 or so. If Im wrong.... someone will tell you lol.
 
for some pictures, go to minneapolismolinecollectors dot org click on photo gallery and 2018 Summer Show tractors & implements. Scroll down through the pictures...there are several of a Universal.
