This stunning tractor is a “Lamborghinetta” DL20-2241R model hailing from 1961.

This model was produced between 1961 and 1965 and is powered by a 1½-litre twin-cylinder air-cooled diesel engine producing 22 horsepower.

This is a power unit of Lamborghini’s own design and manufacture with the surplus Morris engines long eschewed by 1961.

Power is delivered via a four-speed manual transmission with both high and low final-drive ratios.

Current owner, Ermes, is the father of the joint owner of Italian tractor artisans Garage 961.

Garage 961 specialise in the restoration of classic Lamborghini tractors and are approved by Museo Ferruccio Lamborghini as the only restoration company thus certified.

As they say themselves “we restore these tractors as pieces of art, we carry out a high standard restoration with all original parts and colours to bring back these tractors to their former glory.” The owner of Museo Ferruccio Lamborghini? Tonino Lamborghini, Ferruccio’s only son.
