The Fordson to the smallest detail is a tractor
of the highest type. It's transmission rolls on
ground ball bearings. It's final drive is the
worm type, traveling on ground ball bearings
a few inches under oil.
The Fordson type of construction is the most
expensive for its maker, and the cheaper for
it's owner. The Fordson is a high class, clean
cut piece of machinery.
The Fordson Could Double It's Price
