Ben loved her and had to have her after he tested her out!! what a work horse! it's a 1965 i think and we just had the engines rebuilt and i'm going to restore the body on her to bring her back to original state!! we took her to our local tractor show and when that 28 foot long machine pulled on to main street all the people stopped to watch the majestic gal come down the road! what a sight to see! we think she's the only one in the states that is still together! if you know please email me and let me know . the guy we bought her from said there were only three sent to the states and that this one was the only one still intact. but we don't know for sure. we would love to talk with you as you have so much more knowledge on this then we do! we called Essex england and they said they had no info. e me when you can! again what a great article!! hope to see more from you. Don wrote on Monday, May 01, 2000 (PDT): Brian, ole chap A splendid article indeed. You have a tremendous wealth of working knowledge and history of the Fordson, County and Doe Triple D tractors. A Doe was exhibited at the LeSueur, Minnesota Pioneer Power Days show this past August of 1999. With the Doe mentioned in the other comments section that was purchased in Pennsylvania and my Doe we may have at least two of the three original Doe's Dual Drive tractors exported to the USA accounted for. One of the original Doe's is confirmed to have been totally destroyed in a fire in the 70's in South Dakota. Another of the original Doe tractors imported into the USA as a new tractor was separated and made back into two tractors. Some Doe's have filtered into the USA from Canada as used tractors over the years. Thanks for sharing your expertise with these units with us. I have visited with the sole distributor of the Doe Triple D in the United States. He was in his late 80's at the time several years ago and residing in eastern South Dakota. peter wilson wrote on Monday, May 01, 2000 (PDT): Keep it coming!

DeLoof wrote on Monday, September 30, 2002 (PDT): I enjoyed the article. I would appreciate contact for Mr. Dye as I am in the Middle of restoring a U.K. built Ford 4000 3 cylinder diesel and thought he may have ideas for part sources as the U.S. dealers have been next to useless so far. Thanks! John Cone wrote on Sunday, October 22, 2006 (PDT): Iv'e had my share of Tripple D's and Doe 130's working for Cleales of Haverhill Suffolk in the mid to late 60's. I was apprenticed to them as an agri/engineer working on the likes of Roadless,Counties, wheeled and crawlers and Muir Hills. Due to the coming of on farm mechanics and reliable machines, Dealers fell into decline and i left the trade and joined the RAF. I still miss it though. I always remember trying to get the cylinder head off of a International TD6, we had hung 4 inches off the ground on the overhead gantry by it's head and every time someone walked past they would spray the studs with Plus-Gas. Three days later we were sitting having our morning coffee when the building shook and the cylinder head was catapaulted through the skylight. Memories. chris durey wrote on Monday, November 06, 2006 (PST): Good read Brian, I actually started work in 1965 for Ernest Doe & Sons in the Doe 130 manufacturing facility.
