1958 BUNGARTZ T5 TRACTOR. Everhard Bungartz started Bungartz & Co. In Munich in 1934 to build a small, lightweight 2-seat automobile. Less than successful, the company turned to building trailers for agricultural applications, camping and luggage. Agricultural tillers were another product which soon induced Bungartz to manufacture low powered walk-behind tractors to power them. Bungartz began to design larger tractors to respond to improving economic conditions after World War II as well as a more adaptable tractor than just the tillers that had contributed to Bungartz tractors’ success. The first generation of these multi-purpose tractors was the walk-behind Bungartz U1. It was succeeded in 1953 by the Bungartz L5. Bungartz began to build four-wheel tractors in 1953 with the production model T3 which also introduced automatically applied rear wheel brakes which interacted with the acute angle steering to reduce the turning circle. The Bungartz T5 followed in 1956. Conceived for row crops and maintenance, the Bungartz T5 featured a highly specialized 90 degree steering system which in concert with the automatically applied rear brakes gave the T5 a turning circle of just 5′9. It also had an engine driven hydraulic implement lift, 2-speed transfer case and a 4-speed gearbox. The Bungartz T5 was an extremely adaptable, practical and utilitarian power tractor for tight gardens, vineyards and nurseries. The Paine Collection’s 1958 Bungartz T5 is powered by a 13hp Hatz E89FG single cylinder 4-stroke diesel engine. It is in lightly used condition, equipped with a Bungartz rear-mounted power tiller and engine-powered hydraulic implement lift. Suitable for a collector who appreciates an unusual and unusually capable tractor for nursery, yard or large garden, it comes with its owner’s manual and a factory parts list which is important and valuable since parts are still available from successor companies in Europe. This is a very cool and unusual little tractor, in sound and lightly used condition which combines exceptional utility, rarity and capabilities in a package that is ready to be driven, used and enjoyed. Tractor clubs have many, popular, enjoyable events characterized by friendly crowds and enthusiastic competitors. This Bungartz T5 will always be at the center of attention. And it will aerate your garden, too. This was one of the last Bungartz tractors to enter the US. I acquired it from the collection of the late Richard Paine Jr. Seal Cove Auto Museum. We continue to use it for garden tilling. It is in very good original condition. Complete, running with original manuals. It has not been painted etc, just maintained in fine condition and used for tilling a small garden.
