1956 Minneapolis Moline 335 - Third Tractor Off the Assembly Line!

Here's the story of another inspiring young person who competed in the Chevron Tractor Restoration Competition! Matthew Machicek of Texas, restored a 1964 Minneapolis Moline 335 utility tractor to "better-than-new" condition. Matt and the owner, Mike Winkler share the story of finding and restoring this handy utility tractor. The 335 was built from 1956 to 1961 and featured a 4-cylinder, 40 HP engine. Matthew was a national TRC finalist with the 335, but he restored an Oliver tractor to become the 2019 Grand Champion of the Tractor Restoration Competition.

Beautiful tractor 💛

[@duron700r]

Nice tractor! Number 3 off the line adds to to it greatly.
As an owner of an early older grandpa to this, it's great to see!

I love the way the Hood opens up. Likely 30 HP tops.

A neighbor farmer down the road had a 335. He used it daily.

[@stumpy2816]

That is a great little tractor 👍👍

I saw a case tractor behind the Minneapolis Moline tractor and in the film I also noticed you had a green Oliver now all you need is a Farmall and you got the colors of the rainbow

Question for you: My 335 has the stamped stainless Minneapolis Moline name plate. My research I did, I found 1956 335 had stamped name plates. After 1956 the 335 had decal name plate. 445 continued the stamped name plate. Have you found the same to be true?
Beautiful restoration. I love seeing 335 tractors restored nicely. I have a restored 1956 335 too. It is number 74 off the assembly line. Power steering, dual hydraulic quick disconnects, ampli-torque, 3 point, 540 PTO.

I could’ve sworn I saw this tractor at the Houston Livestock show and Rodeo

[@dalenmeyers7517]

How does one enter that competition? And what is the age requirements?

[@elyrankin1877]

You have to be in 4H or FFA as far as I know
