History of our Cletrac K-20


Our Cletrac was used as pulling machine in farming. Later my grandfather gave it to his daughter (my mother). It was very rusty, but I was charmed with this little old tractor! The bearing of connecting rod was broken and that is actually the reason, why the tractor was abandoned to the near forest at 60's or 70's. I started to repair and restore it in 1988. It took many summers to restore and repair it, but it was fun and worth it. Nowadays the tractor is working. If you own a Cletrac or have technical data or any kind of information about Cletracs, please email me!
Our Cletrac is Model K-20, known also as 20K, K, and 20-27 tractor. Here you can see another picture of same-looking Cletrac (the air cleaner is different). And here you can see Dave's Cletrac. I am not sure, if it is Model K, because there are some differences compared to our Cletrac (missing slits of the hood and a wheel instead of crank. And here is one photo more of Cletrac Model K. Its fuel tank has been modified, but otherwise it looks the same as our Cletrac. Here is one photo more about Cletrac K, and also about Model 15-25. Tzafrir Margalit from Israel sent me this photo of Cletrac K-20.
