The County tractor is very much a County design as it relates to the 4WD. It was built by County Commercial Cars Ltd. of England. As far as I know, the rear half of the tractor was based on a Ford 5000 skid unit. The engine was a Ford 2700 series industrial engine.

The engine parts for those 2700 series engines are getting difficlut to find for some models. The basic Ford 5000 tractor parts are readily available through NewHolland. I think I would also agree with the comment about turning radius. They don't look to be a sharp turning design.... HTH. Rod
