Not quite a Nuffield. It was made by an Italian importer of Nuffield tractors that used
the name. There were not many Nuffield parts used.

First thing my eyes went to was the fact that the horseshoe was upside down. It's not a big deal..... Just something I grew up with. Upside down was
for empty of good luck..... Right side up was a good kick sign as mentioned below. Just an old saying from who knows where/when it came about.

Thanks Majorman. I hesitated on whether to add the name Nuffield, but figured someone would straighten it out if wrong.
So Field Boy is more a brand of its own? Do you have any other info on it?

Will look up some more info. on them but from what I remember, the company was a large
Italian Nuffield dealer, V. Cantatore of Turin who did other mods to the tractors like
fitting 4WD. The "Field Boy 300" was a 33hp four wheel drive version about the size of
a Fordson Dexta or Ferguson FE35.
The Nuffield Three cylinder "small tractor" that Nuffield made was still a big tractor
as it used some parts from the Nuffield Four cylinder models and was too large for the
vineyards. This dealer made this small tractor and got permission to call it a
Nuffield, to extend the range into vineyard tractors.
