Worked for a John Deere dealer here in central Nebraska who was very big into the 2 cyl stuff, We had a couple of Lindeman crawlers and I got the opportunity to get them running when they came in. Neat little machine and a blast to drive around. But then I enjoyed working on the 2 cylinders in general as well. Good times, especially when we had our yearly sale.

I was a Navy Seabee, and I’ve heard of the Lindeman crawlers that the Navy had. In fact if you were to go to the Seabee museum near Oxnard, California you’ll see Seabee’s working with the John Deere Lindeman’s crawlers.

Hi from BC Canada. My Dad bought a John Deere model M C crawler in 1950 as I remember. I was 5 yrs old at the time. Was a great little crawler & served us very well on our mixed farm in northern Alberta.

My grandmother's father had one well it's still in the family tho it hasn't seen the outside of shed in maybe 20 years but it's a neat little crawler

Just dressed a gravel driveway this weekend with a BO hand start and original blade. The single acting cylinders make it pretty useless but fun to play with.
