Posted August 28, 201410 yr Hey folks. Today I would like to present a MOC of a tractor. This is an oldtimer tractor DUTRA D4K. It has an 4cylinder serial-engine, permanent 4 wheel drive, swinging front axle, steering, two solenoids with the same pole allows a damping of the seat, there is a lifting a lifting unit and a power take off on the rear side. I built a water cooler a battery a fuel tank and a compressoer. The hood and the roof can be opened.
August 28, 201410 yr Woah, I have no idea what that is, but it looks cool. I can't agree more with that It looks weird and realistic. Nice moc
August 28, 201410 yr Author Here a link to wiki to explain what it is. http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutra_D4K Edited August 28, 201410 yr by xx1Andi
August 28, 201410 yr Very simple, but what a cool tractor. Would be nice to build, because it will not be to expensive to build. Any chance of making instructions? I ain't a very skilled builder, so with only photos I can not build a replica off this.
August 28, 201410 yr Author I have a complete instruction. Partlist included, presentation included. It should be easy to rebuild and also not too expensive. https://www.dropbox.com/s/pr80sgmbm1wboiq/Bild10.jpg?dl=0 Edited August 28, 201410 yr by xx1Andi

August 28, 201410 yr Nice work. It looks really realistic. Although I have to say the real model is quite ugly
August 29, 201410 yr Very nice replica of the original. Wouldn't this one also fit into running Model Team contest? Or is it too much functional for Model Team?
August 29, 201410 yr You linked to an image? Is that correct? Do you mean you're still working on it? I'm getting the same thing.?? Awesome job!!!! Edited August 29, 201410 yr by Kronos
August 29, 201410 yr Wow, very nice! The only way I've heard of these is from the Spin Tires game, and you did a great job capturing the looks of it while retaining good functionality. 15/10
August 29, 201410 yr I don't see why the person who invented the real tractor would make it look like that... Wouldn't it be less stable? It's a great representation though, just like the real thing Nice use of the normal lego for the hood and the front
August 29, 201410 yr Author As I heard and it sounds quiet logical it ist a question of stability, cause of the same size of the wheels. Look at the MB trac. The "nose" is also a bit longer but not so extrem like the Dutra. The pic of the instruction was only an example. Unfortunatley it is not for free Edited August 29, 201410 yr by xx1Andi
August 29, 201410 yr I don't see why the person who invented the real tractor would make it look like that... Wouldn't it be less stable? Actually it is probably more stable than it looks. These days tractor have huge counterweight from iron put in front to make front heavy and to prevent flipping to back when pulling large weight. This is just another way how to do it and save some iron. Moreover, good access to engine is presented as a big advantage on the wiki page.
August 30, 201410 yr This is cool. There is another tractor like this called the Ford County :https://www.google.co.nz/search?q=ford+county+tractor&newwindow=1&es_sm=93&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=sFACVM2cC4G78gWhyYKgAw&ved=0CCoQsAQ&biw=1366&bih=667
November 23, 201410 yr Hello, dropbox link is not active anymore. Could you please upload assembly instructions and parts list again? Thank you in advance. Regards, Béla
