No, the prototypes were made by Harry Ferguson Research to the ideas of the Nuffield tractor division, later known as BMC. The idea was to make a cheaper compact tractor than anyone else as an entry market tractor for small farmers, who at that time may still have been using horses. Most of the tractors found their way into golf courses and school playing fields to mow grass....A market now domineered by Kubota ( another Ferguson protege)
That is the most original looking tractor Ihave seen in many a long day! Iwould guess them are the original British made Goodyear tyres with the diamonds on the side? Look at the clutch pedal it has only done about 500-600 hrs work!
