Softback
Massey Ferguson Tractors takes up the
story of Massey Ferguson tractors from
1957, after the merger of Massey-Harris
and Ferguson, when the red-and-grey
colour scheme was used for the first
time. The author describes the early
models that were to establish Massey
Ferguson’s reputation for rugged
reliability and adaptability: the 35
and 65 models of the 1960s led to the
larger 1100, 1085 and 1155 models,
while, in the 1970s and 1980s, greater
demands for comfort saw the arrival of
the 500 and 600 series. Overall, the
range performs all tasks, from the
basic and popular to what is needed by
the tractor powerhouses of modern
industrial farming. Moreover, with all
the latest developments included,
Massey Ferguson Tractors brings the
reader completely up to date, as well
as offering a look at what the future
might bring.
With a wide range of modern photography
covering both preserved and working
examples, this is a fresh and
comprehensive view of the one of the
agricultural world’s most popular
manufacturers of tractors, considering
the tractors in relation to the time in
which they were built as well as by the
standards of today.
