The Lanz Tractors in Argentina: Lanz Bulldog and Pampa
The origin of Lanz tractors can be traced to the early 1920s. These
German tractors were made in the plant in Manheim in Germany until
approximately 1960, where the majority of the models had single
cylinder, horizontal, two-stroke engines.
LANZ In Germany, Lanz produced Bulldog tractors including the Model T
crawler and the L, N and P wheeled models offering 15, 23 and 45bhp
respectively.
Back in the early days, Lanz was synonym of efficiency and low cost
strong machines. This made them special within the international
market for it was the best ally to start off agricultural businesses.
This unique feature made of Lanz tractors a world wide trademark,
exporting their models in and around the globe.
Lanz came to Argentina through means of importing the finished
product the same way they did in other Latin American countries such
as Uruguay, Brazil, etc.
These greatly appreciated tractors had bee manufactured at Mannheim
Germany from the mid 1930's until the Second World War. At that point
more than 100,000 Bulldog tractors had been produced when the factory
was virtually destroyed by bombing in the early part of the Second
World War. After a struggle to re-establish production after the war
it was the late 1940's before the 06 series of tractors reappeared in
1956 John Deere took over the company and the old Lanz factory is now
their European manufacturing base.
The history of Lanz tractors in Argentina is all in all richer, for
these famous German Field machines were the base inspiration for
Argentina's single most interesting made Tractor: PAMPA. Made during
the second presidency of Juan Domingo Peron, the State Industry
Company IAME, altered the German Bulldog Lanz to make it the
Argentine way. The traditional blue color in these tractors was
changed for a bright orange. Changing the type of gas supply which in
Germany was Diesel oil for a cheaper fuel available in Argentina
which was a mix of kerosene and used oil or even animal fat, the
Pampa was a really inexpensive productive tractor.
There were only 3500 Pampa tractors made in Argentina. Hope I have
been of help, Bob Frassinetti
