Three classic Fords were also in action with ploughs in tow, a Ford 4000, a Ford 5000 and a Ford 7600 all immaculately turned out.
Edit - 7000 - 7600

One thing that I have never driven is a Doe (as they were collectively called round here) but having said that I only know one large farming enterprise that had one. I was driving along the road one day and it was quite bizarre to see the front end of a Super Major seemingly coming straight through the hedge when the tractor driver was ploughing, only to turn at the last minute to get as short a headliand as possible.
I often thought that the turntable must have taken some stick on rough ground when maybe they were chisel ploughing or something like that. But good old British engineering anyway. We didn't have any 4wd tractors in those days, if you wanted serious traction it was a steel tracked crawler or nothing !
