http://tractorblogger.blogspot.com/2009/02/battle-over-for-harry-henry-by-time.html

The next year 1953 Ferguson merged his company in a $16M deal with Massey-Harris another fascinating thread to pick-up. Who else would have resolved the negotiation sticking point and risk $1M on the toss of a coin during a car ride. In 1954 he sold out completely and never worked on tractors again. Henry Ford (I) had died on April 7th 1947. From my time as an apprentice...

Origins of the Modern Tractor: The MODERN TRACTOR
http://tractorblogger.blogspot.com/2009/02/origins-of-modern-tractor-part-2-of-10.html
Origins of the Modern Tractor. The story of how Ford and Ferguson originated the first modern tractor. Contribution. Early tractors had steel or solid rubber tyres. Ford’s good friend Harvey Firestone (pictured with Ford and and Thomas Edison) developed the “Gum Dipped” pneumatic tractor tyre in 1932 (or should I say Tire) for him and the all-new Ford tractor. Such tyres have developed and enable today's huge and ever more powerful tractors to have a soft, gripping footprint. Http:/ www.ytmag.com/.

Origins of the Modern Tractor. The story of how Ford and Ferguson originated the first modern tractor.

Origins of the Modern Tractor: The ‘GREY MENACE’ - 1946 to 56
http://tractorblogger.blogspot.com/2009/02/origins-of-modern-tractor-part-6-of-10_09.html
Origins of the Modern Tractor. The story of how Ford and Ferguson originated the first modern tractor. The ‘GREY MENACE’ - 1946 to 56. Just as Henry Ford II disliked Ferguson’s exclusive rights to market the 9/2N in the US, so Ferguson was equally incensed that Ford US did not pressurize Ford UK to sell tractors with his system in Europe (they still sold the antiquated EN27 Major). He saw this as a wasted opportunity and was anxious to do something about it. In 1947 the post war UK economy needed export ...

Origins of the Modern Tractor. The story of how Ford and Ferguson originated the first modern tractor. Ford had continued to sell the 8N tractor throughout those eight years of litigation and by the time judgement was given in Ferguson’s favour many of his important 1925 patents were expiring and Ford were merely required to make small design changes in order to continue tractor production. Called the NAN it was virtually a continuation of the 8N and therefore the original Ford Ferguson 9N.
