Lamborghini for $5500

NMNA. Sure, it only makes 63 horsepower, but it's still pretty awesome.

"Lamborghini track tractor, model C603L, SN56467, 3 point hitch, 540 pto, 63 hp with operating and main entrance manual"

Hmm, If it weren't for shipping costs, I'd buy that to run an auger during the fall. On an amusing note, IIRC Duetz still owns Lambo tractors.

Still have pics from my college days in Spain where there'd be Lambo Tractors parked on city streets. People seem to forget that Lamborghini was a tractor builder who got pissed at Enzo and so started his own car company.

You could get this, buy a Porsche tractor and park them side by side in garage and blow people's minds.

The Porsche tractor one kills me. In the US they are treated like gold. In Europe they are treated like tractors and actually used, go figure. So make a European vacation out of it and save a bundle on the purchase price.

I'm so glad that thing is in Cali and doesn't have a blade, cuz I really want a small dozer.

Go find an oliver OC2.

Does anyone know if this is a gasser or diesel?

When I hear the words 'Lamborghini' and 'track' used in the same proximity that is not what springs to mind.

I saw an old David Brown tractor in Ireland and got all excited and told my wife it was a long, dull story which I then told her anyway.

Year ago when I was in the agchem R&D bidness, I drove the farmer I rented land from over to the nearest White Tractor (successor to Oliver) dealership. There was an Oliver crawler, probably an OC2, there that I probably could have gotten for pocket change. If I had, my life may have totally changed. At my age, I now had little to no need for one. I've just always wanted one. For years I used to pass some kind of a tracked buggy at a forestry management place near Aynor (on the way to Myrtle Beach). On the last trip I decided I was going to stop in and see if it was for sale. It was gone.

My family used to have all Olivers, then all Whites, still have one White, a Massey, and 2 big AGCO mfwds.

Heck, I still have a cab for an Oliver 70 in my barn loft. I keep watching for a nice 70 to pop up to put that on....lol

In reply to WOW Really Paul?:

This farmer had a 70. That was a sweet sounding engine.

My wife's family has all Oliver's to this day, and a cockshutt... They use deeres for the real work though lol.

Also; my old shop was in the old David Bradley works in Bradley Illinois with the train tracks still running through the heart of the shop. Cool old building.

I'm satisfied with my bolens Iseki 1502. I'd love to have a front end loader some day.

If you park a lambo and a porsche tractor somewhere, you would have to park a Ford tractor too.

In reply to WOW Really Paul?:

When I worked the summers of '68 and '69 operating a pea combine in Wisconsin for Stokely VanCamp, we pulled the combines with big Olivers. I remember thinking they were pretty big to be using gasoline engines.

In reply to chandlerGTi:

Which is sad that the post oliver lineage is better than their Deere counterparts....

Flash Gordon here finally figured out OC = Oliver Cletrac.
