Highlights

Offered in original, unrestored condition
Running, driving and all functions working including a three-point linkage and PTO
An excellent candidate to preserve or restore

The Appeal

Ferruccio Lamborghini didn’t make his money selling supercars.

The very reason he was able to start Lamborghini Automobili, with its huge plant and cutting-edge equipment, was that he’d already made a name for himself as a highly successful tractor manufacturer.

This Lamborghini 2R left the factory in 1966 - the same year the Miura came out. Imported to the UK, it’s a remarkably original example offered in delightfully patinated order. The vendor comments that the engine starts “on the button” and the tractor’s power take-off and three-point linkage work exactly as they should.

For those seeking an original, complete running example to preserve or restore, this would be a superb candidate.
