2011 is the 50th Anniversary of the first year of production of the
New Generation — and the 50th Anniversary of the end of Two-
Cylinder Tractor production in the U.S.A. After that, the tooling for
the “730” was moved to Argentina, where production continued until
1970. The “730s” built in Argentina were Electric-Start Diesels.
The Two-Cylinder Club is celebrating Expo XXI by featuring the King
of the Two-Cylinder Hi-Crop Tractors, the “730”. There will be emphasis
on all John Deere Hi-Crop Tractors at this event, whether they
were built at Waterloo, Dubuque, or Argentina; both Two-Cylinder
and New Generation! |

Expo XXI will

THE SHOW TOY for Expo XXI is the “730” Hi-Crop
Diesel with Electric Start. NOTICE: The production run for this toy
has been set very low to absolutely assure long-term value as a collectible.
It will sell out quickly!
THE AWARD TOY, which will be presented to the owners
of each qualifying ag or industrial tractor exhibited at Expo XXI, is
THE ARGENTINA-BUILT “730” HI-CROP! You read it right… the fabulous
Argentine “730” Hi-Crop, the last of the Two-Cylinders, will be
given as a gift of appreciation for and recognition of the work and
expense incurred by exhibitors, and they’ll receive one of these valuable
1:16 scale toys for each ag or industrial tractor exhibited.
Imagine a pair of these great “730” Hi-Crop Toys on display in your
home or shop!
There has never been anything like this before.
