- Historic British tractor
- Singe-cylinder diesel engine
- Restored condition
- Starting problem
The Marshall tractor was manufactured by Marshall Sons & Co in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire from 1930 onwards, the name changing to Field-Marshall in 1945. The Model M, as seen here, was a development of the Marshall 12/ 20 of 1935. The 12/ 20 tractor was a completely new design powered by a 4. 7-litre single-cylinder diesel engine. In 1938 the 12/ 20 was redesigned and the model coding changed, this new tractor becoming the Model M.
The vendor advises us that, although restored, this Model M is currently very difficult to start. As far as is known the tractor is in good condition mechanically, although the starting problem needs rectification. Accordingly, the vehicle is sold strictly as viewed.
