Ferguson

From Harry Ferguson's revolutionary little grey Fergie to the half-million Massey Ferguson 135s that worked farms across three continents, Britain built some of the most important tractors in the world. A guide to the classic and vintage British tractors worth knowing, why they changed farming, and why the survivors are now collected, shown, and restored.

The Ferguson TE20, the "little grey Fergie", is the tractor that brought Harry Ferguson's three-point hydraulic system to the world. Over half a million built in Coventry from 1946. Its history, the Ford handshake and the famous lawsuit, the petrol, TVO and diesel engines, what to check when buying, and what one is worth.
