Farmer Jerry says

“The 730 was the grand finale of the two-cylinders. Had power steering and all! It was like driving a Cadillac compared to the old steel-wheelers.”

About this model

  • 1:16 die-cast metal replica
  • Two-cylinder diesel
  • Original 1998 Precision Classics release

The John Deere 730 diesel is the final chapter of the two-cylinder era, produced from 1958 to 1961, with the last unit built months after John Deere shocked the industry with the four- and six-cylinder New Generation tractors in August 1960. Producing around 59 belt horsepower, the 730 was one of the last and most refined two-cylinder John Deeres ever built. This 1998 Precision Classics 1:16 replica captures the distinctive styled hood and the final refinement of a design lineage stretching back to the original Model D of 1923.
