About Ford Tractors: Ford Tractor history begins with Henry Ford, who started experimenting with gasoline engines around 1890. The first official Ford car, Model A, was introduced in 1903. In 1907, Henry built his first experimental work tractor and later mass-produced tractors under the name Fordson. The distribution of Fordson tractors was shifted to the Ford Motor Company by 1920, and over the years, Ford has continued to be a leading manufacturer in the industry.

The Early Tractors: The Ford model 9N tractor, introduced in mid-year 1939, was a joint venture between Henry Ford and Harry Ferguson. It was commonly known as the Ford-Ferguson tractor and featured a 3-point hitch and hydraulic system. The model 2N, made between 1942-1947, was built without electrical components and rubber tires due to wartime material shortages. The model 8N, produced from 1947-1952, underwent the first major redesign since 1939 and featured many improvements. The Ford Golden Jubilee NAA, made from late 1952 through 1954, marked the end of 8N production and introduced a completely redesigned series with live hydraulics and a more powerful engine.

The one hundred series tractors, including models 600, 700, 800, and 900, were produced from 1954 to 1957. These tractors featured various updates and improvements, such as increased horsepower and redesigned rear axles. The one hundred and one series tractors, including models 501, 601, 701, 801, and 901, were made from 1957 to 1962 and introduced new options such as power steering and updated color schemes. The one thousand series tractors, including models 2000, 4000, and 6000, were produced from 1962 to 1964 and featured a restyled grille and new corporate blue color.
