Lord Ferguson Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 I'll take it.. I bet she feels a little underpowered with all those wheels gripping the ground :o We never had a 4wd 135 over here... or any 100 series for that matter... a few companies offered conversions.. 4 wheels traction.. and Schindler are two that spring to mind. In Mainland Europe Massey offered 4wd variants of there 100 series them selves... I've got a couple of brochures on these (as you would expect) Thanks for posting pud... you are a gent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a couple of brochures on these (as you would expect) Thanks for posting pud... you are a gent I used to take some of our trade in Masseys to Four Wheel Traction in the seventies. The company was based in a row of small garages with up and over doors. It looked like they had bought up a couple of garage blocks that once were used by nearby houses. They looked like a real "Tin Pot" organization; but their conversions worked well, and they exported them all over the world. They also used to make power steering conversion kits for several makes of tractor. Their "Factory" was almost alongside the entrance to Blackwall Tunnel. If you missed the turning it was a bu**er to get back to. The company was owned by a man called Robert Eden, from Burwash in Sussex, who I believe also used to export Fords under his own name. There you go......more useless information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
