1954 - 1955 Minneapolis Moline

One of the two tractors that are feature outside the museum is a 1954 - 1955 ZB Minneapolis - Moline. The ZB features a tricycle front end and used a 206-ci  four-cylinder engine with a 3 5/8 x 5 inch bore and stroke and had 36-horsepower. If interest the tractor is forsale, it runs very well. You can give us a call or send us an email.

Minneapolis Moline

The Minneapolis-Moline company was formed in 1929 after a merger between three established companies. Moline Implement Company, est 1852, the Minneapolis Threshing Machine Company, est.1887, and the Minneapolis Steel & Machinery Company, est. 1902.
The newly joined company kept the production going with their production of the Twin City models this was a carryovers of the formally built Minneapolis Steel & Machinery Company. Production of this tractor continued through 1934 and was followed by many other popular models of tractors - one of the most extensive in the industry at that time.
