Almost Showroom New

Each off-season we pick one special project that might not need to be done but could be done to make something work better or look better. This year we choose to paint a classic golf course tractor, our 1972 Jacobsen G-10.


The G-10 has a three point lift, belt drive PTO and 3 speeds. This tractor will never pull a plow but is a great unit for pulling trailers or a gang reel mower through the rough. Comfortable to drive the G-10's gasoline engine is quite for a 50HP power unit.

The decals were no longer available from the manufacture but we had some custom made by the Graphic Center in Fond du Lac at a great price.

The finished unit looks great thanks to James hard work and efforts to bring back that showroom shine.

  1. Dear David,
    Thank you for posting your G-10 refurbishment. It looks great - it is amazing that it is 40 years old!
    As you may know, your blog post was picked up by TurfNet's Blog Aggregator. I'll send a link along to our PR Manager who may be in contact about posting to Jacobsen's Facebook page.
    Best regards,
