Cropmaster Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Hey guys, My favourite Fordson Major model would probably be the E1A, although I prefer the scalloped rear wheels found on the later Power Major. I put a pair of these on my own E1A to have the best of both worlds! What about you guys? ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Not a great fan of Fords (as you may know)... but for me... if I HAD to choose it would be the Super Major... a good old vintage tractor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Udimore Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 :o :o What sort of a question is that :o * All 5 are superb, at a push I would probably choose a super major but really not sure, they all have different qualitys and character. * Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 I think it was the fact it was used for scraping behind the pig farrowing sheds, normally done early on a Saturday morning to upset the neighbours of the farm..... along with my stomach!

Cropmaster Posted June 29, 2006 Author Share Posted June 29, 2006 :)After driving a variety of different vintage tractors, I found that Fordson Majors are not as nice to drive as Fergusons, David Browns or Nuffields. Nuffields' gears are smooth changing and their transmissions are almost silent! Unfortunately the same cannot be said of the Fordson Major tractors. However, Majors look nicer than Nuffields with their blue and orange livery and attractive tinwork! The easily maneuverable Ferguson TE20 is probably the nicest vintage tractor to drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
