Presentation

This 1963 Lamborghini 5C TL crawler tractor is said to have remained with its original owner until 2023, and it subsequently underwent a refurbishment before it was purchased by the seller in 2026. The tractor is finished in blue with an orange forward-hinged hood, and power comes from an air-cooled 2.2-liter diesel inline-three with Bosch mechanical fuel injection linked with a four-speed dual-range transmission and track drive. Features include a bench seat trimmed in black vinyl, hand-controlled directional levers, headlights, Lamborghini-branded toolboxes, taillights, dual rear power take-offs, and a draw bar. This Lamborghini tractor is now offered in Italy with superseded Italian registration.

Ferruccio Lamborghini founded Lamborghini Trattori in 1948 to serve the post-war demand for farm equipment in Italy, and the company introduced its first track-drive model in 1955. This 5C TL was repainted in blue with an orange hood during the refurbishment, and it features headlights with stone guards, a forward-hinged hood, a black muffler, taillights, and a rear spotlight.

The operator’s station houses a Lamborghini-branded bench seat with black vinyl upholstery as well as fender-mounted toolboxes with the Lamborghini name embossed on the covers. Engine speed is controlled with a hand throttle, and the tractor is steered using two brake pedals and hand-controlled directional levers.

The steel dash houses an ignition switch, a starter button, and instrumentation including an oil pressure gauge and a Lamborghini Cento-branded Fiama tachometer. The hour meter shows 3,300 hours of runtime, approximately two of which were added under the seller’s ownership. Total runtime is unknown.

Hello everyone — we’re officially in the final hour!
Thank you to everyone who has followed, commented, and bid.
A Lamborghini 5CTL of this caliber rarely comes to market.
For anyone still watching and considering it, this is a rare opportunity to add a remarkable piece of Lamborghini history to your collection.
If you’ve been waiting, now is the time.
I’ll be here through the finish for any last-minute questions.
Good luck to all bidders!

@seller Yes it does, thank you so much.

@Jackdup Thanks for asking. As a rough reference, recent quotes I received for shipping this 5CTL from Italy to the U.S. have generally been in the $4,000–$5,200 range, depending on the destination.
For example, approximately $4,200 to Charleston, South Carolina, and around $4,600 to Atlanta via Savannah.
I’m also covering the transport of the tractor from Vicenza to the port in Italy. Hope that helps give you a realistic idea.
Sep 22, 2026 · 17:02
@seller I am not bidding but would like to satisfy my curiosity. Would you mind telling me what it cost to ship a tractor to the US. I know there are lots of varieties but just a rough idea would be great.
Thanks

Quite possibly the slowest Lamborghini on the planet.

Hi @eliteautos, thank you — I really appreciate it! Please don’t let the location discourage you.
Shipping to the U.S. is very manageable; in fact, I shipped two tractors from Europe to the United States just last month. I’d be happy to assist with the process and share reliable shipping contacts.
A Lamborghini 5CTL in this condition is a very rare opportunity, so with only a few hours remaining, I hope you’ll consider joining the bidding.

@maxtrader,
Thanks for asking. The top speed is approximately 11 km/h (about 6.8 mph). These tractors were designed more for pulling power and traction than for speed.

@MacWinget @lottacars @fxfx
I’ve now received the shipping quotations for the U.S.
For Charleston, South Carolina, the estimated total is approximately $4,200.
For Atlanta, Georgia, via the Port of Savannah, the estimated total is approximately $4,600.
Depending on the final U.S. destination, current estimates generally range from $4,000 to $5,200, including the expected import duties/tariffs and port-related charges.
Additionally, I will cover the transport of the tractor from Vicenza to the Port at my expense.
Thank you all for your interest and for the great questions. I truly appreciate it.

Hello. Is this subject to tariffs? If so, will your soon-to-be-posted shipping estimates include all duties and tariffs?
Sep 17, 2026 · 10:12
Hi Luiz,
Thank you. I know 13004 was registered in 1963.
If you are sure about 13773 this means that there is an error in the Vitozzi book as a.o. 13407 is on the front cover and it is mentioned the picture was taken in 1964 which would have been impossible.
LuizRenato (The Seller)

Hi @vetusferrum, thank you.
The Italian registration document I have is a replacement document issued in 1975 after the original was lost, so the 1975 date on the document is not the tractor’s production year. It does not indicate 1963 or 1964 as the tractor’s production year.
For the year, the strongest reference I have is the chassis sequence.
This tractor is chassis no. 13428.
There is a 1963 Lamborghini 2R with chassis no. 13004 and a 1963 Lamborghini 1R with chassis no. 13773, placing 13428 directly between two known 1963 examples.
The chassis number stamped at the rear of the tractor is 13428, and the identification plate carries the same number.
I’m uploading photos showing both, confirming that the plate and chassis correspond.

I would want to just drive it up to the community pool. I wonder how hard it would be to make a matching trailer to bring the grandkids up there as well.

Hello everyone, and welcome to the auction.
Thank you for the interest in this Lamborghini 5CTL. Early Lamborghini crawler tractors are already uncommon, but the 5CTL in particular is exceptionally rare and seldom comes to market today. Even among Italian vintage-tractor enthusiasts and specialists, it is regarded as one of the more difficult early Lamborghini crawlers to find, especially as a complete and operational example.
This 5CTL is fully operational and still retains it original-style Italian license plate, which makes it even more unusual for a tractor of this age.
I’ll be following the auction and comments closely and will do my best to answer any questions as quickly and thoroughly as possible.
I’m also working on shipping estimates to several U.S. destinations and will post those here as soon as I receive them, so interested bidders have a clearer idea of the logistics involved.
Thank you again for the interest, comments, and bids. I hope everyone enjoys the auction, and good luck to all bidders.

Hi,
Nice crawler. Do you have a picture from the frame number on the back of the tractor and from the Italian registration? To my opinion it was built in 1964.
Sep 16, 2026 · 05:45
@oldJarheadb52 re the two PTO. When engaged, one turns constantly when the engine is running, the other only turns when the tractor is moving forwards. There is a lever to change how you want it to work.

before anyone asks, yes, RTFM means Read the Freaking Manual
Sep 16, 2026 · 00:52
any indication why or what the difference is between those two PTO shafts? Some us tractors offer 540 rpm and 1,000 rpm for different kinds of equipment, but us 1,000 rpm uses many more small "V" shaped 'splines', so that it's obviously for different use, ie, RTFM.
