Minneapolis Moline Other models

The register lists 59 versions from 7.5 to 107 kW with four- and six-cylinder engines, mostly built by Minneapolis-Moline itself and supplemented by bought-in Hercules and Waukesha units. Power ranged from petrol carburettor engines through diesel to LPG and multi-fuel versions, offered in parallel through the 1940s and 1950s.

Minneapolis-Moline ranked among the mid-sized American tractor makers, competing with John Deere, International Harvester, Allis-Chalmers and Oliver for Midwest farms. In 1963 the firm merged with Oliver and Cockshutt into the reorganised White Motor group, and the marque was phased out by the mid-1970s. The enclosed-cab idea behind the UDLX was later taken up by every major manufacturer.

When buying, engine condition and parts supply matter most: bought-in Hercules and Waukesha engines can be easier to source than the marque's own units. On Vista models, check the frame and steering linkage of the offset seat; on the UDLX, check cab seals and wiring. Carburettor and LPG conversions should be checked for originality, and carburettors and distributors are common wear items on tractors imported from the United States.
