1948 Field Marshall Series 2

Highlights

  • Historically significant early diesel tractor
  • Period scheme with nice patina 
  • 5.1-litre single-cylinder 2-stroke diesel engine reported to start and run well
  • UK road registered

The Appeal

It's impossible to overstate how important the Field Marshall was. To many agricultural labourers, this was their first experience of mechanised farming: a 5.1-litre two-stroke diesel leviathan, famously fired into life with a shotgun cartridge. These machines have earned a devoted following among collectors of agricultural heritage.
This 1948 example was recently purchased from a deceased estate. It presents exceedingly well for its age, with a pleasing patina, and the best thing is that it is road registered.  For enthusiasts of vintage agricultural machinery, this Field Marshall Series 2 offers a compelling opportunity to acquire a fascinating piece of British engineering history.
