Where Can I Learn More About JD

[ilovetractors]

Hi Guys,

I am thinking about building a website about John Deere and a few other tractor brands. It would be only about antique tractors. Where would one find materials for a website like that? Any books? Other websites that you would recommend?

Thanks

Agreed. How about this question - where do you find someone who can write about antique tractors?
Here?

Amazon.com has plenty of books on vintage tractors.
Best magazine (IMHO) is "Antique Power"
There are websites for old iron enthusiasts of every stripe including JD. I like the JD website for the old 2-cylinder Johnny Poppers.

Johnnypopper.com, Rummy's antique 2 cylinder John Deere tractor page

You can learn a lot about old JDs at antique tractor events. I like the one that's held in Tulare, CA in April each year.

International Agri-Center / Tulare, CA

The Early Days Gas Engine &Tractor Association (EDGE&TA) has a lot of interesting stuff on its website

EDGETA Home

I belong to the Redding, CA chapter. We restore old tractors and stationary farm engines.

Good luck.
