Information and Parts listing for the JD Model 520 pedal tractor made by the ERTL Company.

 

The JD Model 520 came in three different variations.

The 4430, 4440 & 4450.

The ERTL Co. first made the 4430 in 1973.  This pedal tractor came with a metal seat, metal steering wheel.  The first few shipped from the factory had metal front wheels but without slots to mount hub caps.  These had the old style push caps on front axle and pedal crank.    Later models did have the black plastic seats and steering wheels. 

Then in 1978 ERTL made the 4440.  This pedal tractor had the black plastic seat and black plastic steering wheel.  Also the front rims are plastic.

Then in 1982 ERTL made the 4450.  This pedal tractor had the black plastic seat and black plastic steering wheel.  The front rims are plastic.

The decals are different for each pedal tractor.

*

The ERTL Company in 1990 made what is called the 4455.  This pedal tractor has a casting marking saying Stock No. 520.  The ERTL box seal showing on the right side.  The Model 55 has the starter on the left rather than the battery box which is on the 50.  It also has a large embossed ERTL seal on the casting.

*

In 1990 ERTL also made the 55 Industrial.  This pedal tractor was the industrial JD Yellow in color.  It is marked in much the same way as the above green JD 4455.  If you want an original 55 Industrial tractor you almost have to have the original box it came in.  Anyone can paint a Model 55 and call it an Industrial.  Original industrials have a typical ERTL date mark like the 1/16" scale toys.

 

Parts plus shipping.  I would not know shipping until we have an order, with name and address, then pack the box and weight it.
