WOW, $12 for a scale model Deere R diesel? Spring of 1964 Dad bought me MY Tractor an R, even put Char-Lynn power assist steering on it because the Two foot diameter steering wheel wasn't enough leverage for a small 10 year old to run the thing! Pretty sure that 2 cylinder beast hammering away thru that joke of a muffler for hour after hour is why my ears ring constantly now. No matter what job you had to do that R made it harder and take much more time to complete. We had a gas Super M-TA that I ran some the year before. R should have pulled a 4 bottom plow, and I did for a day or two, in alfalfa sod, 2nd gear and had to drop into 1st on one hill. Rest of the spring I pulled a 3-14 IH #8 plowing old corn ground in 3rd, about 1/2 mph slower than the SM-TA would pull the same plow. The R disappeared with 16 acres left to plow, local road commissioner thought it would work good dragging roads. Yep, at the age of 10 years I should have had a toy R, not a real one. And why ANYONE wanted a real one is a mystery to me.

Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
