Minneapolis-Moline G-1355

The Toy Tractor Times is proud to introduce the Minneapolis-Moline ^®  G-1355 as it’s 27^th Anniversary Tractor.   The SpecCast High-Detail Series  1/16 Minneapolis-Moline ^® G-1355 will be the third model in the Toy Tractor Times Legends of the 20^th Century Series.

The all new die-cast tooling by SpecCast will feature an authentic Minneapolis-Moline ^® 585 cubic-inch engine, detailed operators station, fender fuel tanks, working 3pt hitch, removable front weights and much more.  

Minneapolis-Moline’s 143 hp G-1355 is a legend in the Prairie Gold ^® line because it was the largest row crop tractor in the company‘s history and was the last model in the storied brands line.   The G-1355 was produced from 1972-1974. It would mark the end of era for Minneapolis-Moline ^® and become the base for the top model in the new White Farm Equipment ^® tractors starting in 1975.

Built for the biggest jobs on the farm the G-1355 was a hybrid between the White Motor’s ^® subsidiary brands of Minneapolis-Moline ^® and Oliver ^®.   Minneapolis-Moline’s ^® 585 cubic-inch engine combined with Oliver’s ^® power train and 118 gallon fender fuel tanks produced a big tractor built for the challenges and board acre farming of the 1970’s.
