Hi gang;
In WW1 Roadless Traction developed half track units to fit onto army trucks. Later they developed full and half tracks to fit most makes of tractors. In 1952 they took on the patent rights to build 4wd front axles & transfer boxes from Selene in Italy.
They built unequel sized 4wd tractors on Fordson & Ford tractors until the mid-1980's. The transfer sandwich box fitted infront of the main gear box, a propeller shaft ran down the left of the tractor to a front axle which was a modified from the WW2 surplus stocks of GMC CCKW 6x6 front axles.
This particular model is based on the 1958-60 Fordson Power Major. Roadless' name for these tractors was Ploughmaster.
