We understand the concerns we’re hearing from the people who love our classic tractors, and we deeply appreciate the loyal following we have on machines like the 4020. We chose a 4020 for this project because of the special place it holds in John Deere history. It truly is a classic, and we’re honored that people collect and restore them. Chip Foose is equally aware and appreciative of the 4020’s heritage.
Although it looks great in the videos, this particular tractor was not restored when we started the project. It needed extensive mechanical repairs before Chip could start work, including replacing the entire fuel system, clutch assembly, and most of the lines and hoses in the tractor. The tech doing the work guessed that it had been 40 years since the tractor had any major service or repairs done.
We’d also like to invite everyone to get an in-person look at this tractor after it’s completed. It will be unveiled at the Commodity Classic in Anaheim, CA in March, and then it will travel through the country as part of the Drive Green Caravan. As much as we like Chip’s rendering, we think the finished product will look even better.
Thanks for sharing your opinions. They are all appreciated.
