Australian White 1955

agcodick · Apr 1, 2012

My friend Jason Hasert from the Toy Tractor Times wanted my to share these pictures from an Australian White Magazine ad. The most interseting picture in this ad is the White 1955. Does anyone know any more information on these Australin Models. Thanks

we picked up a 2-85 White one time. It was to have been shipped to Austrlia. I also know we got a large wooden crate with the tractor that was full of parts to convert it back to an American 2-85

What was in the box? What was the differencs between a tractor built for Australia and one built for North America?

Don't remember as it was not project. The 2 guys that normally set up the machinery converted it over.

That combine without a cab is interesting. What model combine is it? I know 125, but what does that cross over to?

The combine was made by a company named ARBOS that according to my Agco Heritage book was an Italian combine company that White purchased in 1967 to try to get into the European combine market. Unfortunately it did not work out for them.

That was my first guess. One of the 2 people that worked on the 2-85 conversion in my post below went to Branfort one time and they had one there so I knew they did some testing of the Arbos models. Art Meyers who was service manager in Branfort at the time stopped at the dealership where I worked and he told us about the Arbos machine they had in Branfort as well.

Wow, you have a 2270 and a 2155? That's and awesome pair. Do you have any pictures? I would really be interested in seeing them. I also would like to see what exactly the grill emblem on the 2270 says. I have heard they say cockshutt on them. But that may have been for canada. Email me if you like. Thanks
