John Deere 62

The John Deere model 62 tractor was resulted from years of research into a small tractor that would replace one or two horses. The 62 replaced the experimental model Y, although the 62 itself became the model L after less than one year of production. The 62 can be readily distinguished from the L by the "JD" below the radiator.
