Model L 15-25 Tractor


Registry Insight- Model L 15-25

Development work on a smaller tractor to the 18-30 began in 1920 with the Model L announced in January 1921 known as the 12-20, after testing at Nebraska the Model L achieved 15 drawbar and 27 belt hp so from then on the tractor became known as the 15-25. The engine was built by the Midwest Engine Co of Indianapolis which measured 280 Cubic Inches.
Sadly I don't have any photos of units here in Australia, if you can help that would be greatly appreciated!
