Ford and Fordson Tractors

The official magazine of the Ford & Fordson Association. Ford & Fordson Tractors magazine covers the early Fordsons to the last of the Fords, and the latest news with New Holland. Each issue of this quality glossy magazine is packed with reader stories, buyers’ guides, news, reports, technical advice and parts for sale. The old Fordson and the Ford that followed were incredibly versatile tractors and were arguably converted by more specialist companies like County, Doe, Roadless and many others. We celebrate all this in our magazine with features on restorations, collections, recollections. Tractor collectors may also find that rare part or tractor for sale in our reader’s free ads.

SALES CORNER • With the weather hot, the many farm sales have continued at a pace, but it’s been at the big two collective sales in July and early August that the classic and vintage stock has been mostly offered. Prices have been very much up and down at both sales we look at, but Pugh’s had the better stock when it came down to it on Friday 31 July - Saturday 1 August and perhaps got more away. But you can bet it will all change by the next issue of FFT.
