Ford Tractors 1965-95

Ford Tractors 1965-95:
three decades of achievement

This DVD celebrates a marque which became known for its manufacturing excellence – Ford.

George French, Dennis Burston and fellow enthusiasts have selected thirty-two tractors to chart the range of Ford's output from the launch of the 6X range to the merger with New Holland.

The filming was carried out in Devon and Somerset in 2009 and 2010. Wherever possible, the tractors are shown working with appropriate implements including some fine examples of haymaking and silage equipment that will stir many a memory for farming viewers.
