"Motorized plow "Stock"
(Germany, 1910)
Imported to Israel in 1912. The motorized plow, which was called “The
Mechanical Mule,” was one stage in the transition from horse-drawn plowing
to tractor plowing.
A standard horse-drawn tractor is attached at the rear. Instead of the
horses, the plow is towed by puller wheels powered by a gasoline engine.
From the premises of Nira and Yehuda Lerner, Gedera. |

Stock type tractor restoration
from
1917
Developed in 1910 by a German
engineer named Robert Stock in his tractor
factory.
This
tractor was equipped with gasoline engine with two cylinders gearbox.
In 1915, two tractors were
brought to Israel by German Templars, who established a farm near Beit
Shean. We received the tractor in very poor shape, motor gear was destroyed
and the body of the tractor was rusted.
After nearly two years of detailed
restoration this tractor is now displayed in our hanger in perfect working
order. There are only two tractors like that in the world, the second is in
a museum in France.
