Des aller et venues entre Ford et( David Brown qui lui n'avait pas compris l'enjeu du tout porté arriere (ferguson A) d'un petit garagiste au génie, mais qui ne voulait pas se faire manger à la soupe Ford petit-fils et devenir indépendant après le 2N , le divorce conduit Ford à perdre le procès en justice, et Harry Ferguson obligé de trouver un partenaire financier s'associer avec un ancien fabricant de bombardiers(de Havilland), pour devenir la Standart Motor Company de Coventry, Angleterre.

I got to drive it occasionally, on his Christmas tree farm. One day I hope to find one similar to that one to acquire.

Great tractors, and fun to drive.

Some comments. My Grandmother's Grandad was an Englishman. He farmed in Texas wearing what we would call a suit and tie. Just look at some old photos of workplaces. I learned to drive, driving Ford 8n and 9n tractors in the hayfields of East Texas in the mid 1950s. My Uncle worked at a Ford Tractor dealership at that time. When I worked in the shop, I was immersed in Ford tractor literature and talk. My Uncle was so Ford be-sotted that when I bought a GMC truck in 1987 he was mad for weeks. Of course as time went on, I finally learned of the partnership of Ford and Ferguson. As near as I can tell, Ford just stole Ferguson's patents and ideas. Ford was good at that. A boyhood friend said that even when they were doing things, Henry always seemed to be directing instead of doing. Engineers were aware of the forces at play. I have an old textbook for use in Agricultural and Mechanical colleges, published about 1903. It describes the settings, adjustments, and implement choices for farm horse drawn equipment. It shows the forces involved and how to adjust for them.

I wouldn't say Henry Ford "stole" Fergusons patents, they had the famous "handshake agreement" in which Ferguson was responsible for further development, distribution and sales, Ford was responsible for manufacturing and a sales organization in the US (possibly all NA- not real clear on that). That was all fine and good for 10 yrs or so- till Henry Ford died When his grandson took over the company- his accountants and executives convinced him to break that agreement - and went on using Ferguson's design....

Lots of ag tractors have a drawbar hitch, some only have it, especially those that use drag implements with their own lift cylinders. The uber-famous Big Bud 747s are one extremely well-known example model of these. The Allis Chalmers G is a toolcarrier tractor with no 3 point that was so successful in vegetable fields that it's been copied into modem versions like the Oggun, Kult, Tilmor, and others.

Very cool

The TEA 20 coventry, the first tractor of the farm in France , arrived in 1946 before I was born (1950). For children of 10-12 years, the steering wheel was easy to handle, and even with short legs one could press on the pedals with all the weight of the body. For the Farmall M arrived 5 years later, it was necessary to push forward the pedal and it was hard, the release sometimes brutal!.On the other hand, the braking system (drums getting wet) was not very good. The IH was strapped on the reducers: one could block one of the wheels and turn like a top. The fergie never braked despite a tribe of specialists who came to analyze the defect, nobody solved it. 12 years later my father with a very mechanic employee put the tractor on blocks, disassembled the mechanism, to discover that it had simply the cams of disposals in reverse !!!! the vice was discovered. Hats off to the engineers....

I've admired my neighbours TE-20 since i moved here 12 years ago. Just today he told me he's getting transferred for work and selling everything. Offered me the Fergie for $1000.! New tires, blade, rear carry box and a small 3 furrow plow. I am absolutely thrilled about it. I've been tilling 2 acres of land with a 1966 Allis Chalmers, it's time to give it a little rest and open up a few more acres with the Fergie. Cheers from Canada.

Almost 100 years later not much of it changed. 🚜💪

The best things never do

I like my Ferguson. Just did some brush hogging. Its a 1952 TO30

years ago my father had Ferguson plough with one unique feature ,the third furrow board ploughed to the left , it was for making ''Ridges'' , mainly for Potatoes
