At the beginning of the 50s, after their competitors in the tractor market, Lanz and Hanomag, had already made an early start in the production of track-laying tractors, Deutz in Cologne also started development of a series of track-laying tractors. The first Deutz track-laying tractor was the Deutz DK 60, which went into mass production in 1953. Very advanced for its time, the Deutz four-cylinder, 4-stroke diesel engine delivered 60 hp and, compared to the competition, had clear advantages with regard to fuel consumption and, very important in agriculture, cold-start behaviour While the first track-laying tractors from Deutz were developed almost exclusively for agricultural use, from the early 60s, Deutz track-laying tractors were increasingly offered as purely construction machinery. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this Deutz 60 PS track-laying tractor to a scale of 1:32 in the PRO R line. This line, consisting of resin as the material, stands for exceptional and highly filigree small series models. By means of this highgrade model material, it is possible to produce very rare and exotic exemplary vehicles in perfect quality and also in low and exclusive production runs.
