I had an A, 60, 720,435, 4010, 3010, 3020, 4020, and a 2440, but, my favorite was a mint 530 that I bought from the original owner, now that was a sweet two cylinder

Sweet G !! "Nothing Runs Like A Deere" 🦌👍🇺🇸

just bought 2 Gs in thr same shape, got em both for 7 grand, around here(iowa) hard to find a decent G, and average oice here is 5500 and up. always wanted a G now I have 2!!

Those tractors get "pig dirty" just due to overall circumstances. Mud, dust, sand, and the like. You got a winner. Back then, farm profits were all so much better than today. Big Bad John rides again!

Nice oldies

Oh man does it sound good! Three grand for tractor like that in that condition is a good deal! Still expensive yes but for model G in that condition for $3000 is a good deal!

I have a 1947 G , ran into the same problem with the fuel tank . I used POR 15 to clean and coat the tank . it's work great for the last ten years

We had an a that vibrated like that,couldn't figure it out. We figured it was because it had a bit of play in the slots on the crankshaft. We changed the crankshaft but it still had the vibration. I kind of liked it because when idled down it ran like a hit and miss engine. We could tell which tractor ours was in a line up of tractors.

When a glorious sound to hear one running & then attach a sickle mower. 😎

That’s a dandy G! I used to have one just like it. The serial number on mine was 55777. I wish now I hadn’t sold it. I like my model 70, but there’s nothing like a G. 😃

sounds great, looks great!

$3,000 a good price for that G. Never seen one with a water pump. Great video thanks.

Wished I live in the country where I could own a John deere tractor. I love those pup pups . Bo

Our Deere R diesel would bounce the front tires close to a HALF INCH at idle at the right speed. I guess they ALL do that. It, the R was my 10th Birthday present. Running that thing was about like putting a 5 gallon steel bucket over your head and having 4 or 5 friends beat the ever loving daylights out of that bucket with baseball bats. I disked 20 acres of ground to sow oats one afternoon, got done about 3-4 PM in the afternoon. Woke up twice that night with my ears still ringing. There was NO such thing as "Hearing Protection" back then. I don't remember Dad ever running it. Dad did run it 20 miles to his favorite Deere mechanic for a tune-up, almost a 2 hour trip both ways, 11 mph road gear. Township road commissioner bought it from Dad, still had 22 acres left to plow, quick job for our Super M-TA FARMALL. TOWNSHIP wanted the R to drag roads before oiling, and chewing up chunks of oiled dirt pavement scarified up with a heavy-duty rotoliller. That knocked the live PTO drivetrain out FOUR TIMES in Four years. DID DEERE field test the R at ALL? The 2 cylinder pony motor was in no way able to spin the diesel engine over more than one hole, maybe two, at a time. Not sure what happened to t 7:50 he R, nobody in our township would have bought it. Oh, no center main bearing on the diesel engine crankshaft of an R, Salesman told Dad NEVER LUG IT, when the crankshaft breaks just scrap the whole tractor. I spent most of the spring pulling an IH #8 3-14 plow in 3rd gear.

More videos on the G please! I’m redoing a 52 g

That’s a beautiful tractor. I never could understand why Deere didn’t line up the air cleaner and exhaust like on the A&B though

Nice lookin

That is a nice looking G! Looking forward to the videos showing the fuel tank cleaning and fixing the vibration!

G stands for gas guzzling Godzilla good golden general G

We have a JD D, is blowing oil out the exhaust, starts and runs perfect after you clean the plugs

Sure looks and sounds good. Like you said, it needs a good cleaning out.

What exactly do you mean by the vibration at the front? I own 2 2 Cylinders and both shake the front end like that at idle.

I believe the very late A, B, and G tractors had a distributor as new tractors.

One question I have about a tractor like that do you recommend non-ethanol gasoline For a tractor like that?

Nice

Late model Gs had distributers not coil. We had a 52 model. Grew up on it

Do you have the stub shaft for hand starting ?

As you dad was pulling it in to the shop, was it running on 1 cylinder?

I thought by 1952 that all the frames were the later styled tractors with the stamped frames. Not disagreeing with the year of your tractor, just trying to figure out the true year of my A. The serial number on it is confusing because one place it go to says one thing and the next place says another. It is a later model A because it has the stamped frame but has the same transmission as the early styled.

Pretty much stole it for 3k, great buy!

Tractor should have a DLTX51

Paid top $. It is nice.

That tractor is a All fuel....why not use the smaller gas tank...that things made to run on bad gas.......your only running on one cylinder

Can’t wait to see the G in action in front of a plow!

$3,000 a good price for that G. Never seen one with a water pump. Great video thanks.
