In 1968 Ford updated its complete tractor line with the 1000 Series tractors launched in 1964 becoming the improved Force range with models from the 37hp three-cylinder 2000 up to the four cylinder 75hp 5000, most having increased power ouputs over their predecessors. New less fussy bonnet styling was also a feature but the tractors were still built in three factories in Basildon in Essex, Belgium and the USA with various different spec versions being built to suit local conditions and requiements, inlcuding four wheel drive, row-crop, narrow and industrial models to name but a few. In 1970 the new Fieco safety cab was fitted to the range to meet new legislation in the UK and other countries and was used until the new 600 Series replaced the whole line-up in 1975

The County Full Track, otherwise known as the CFT, was County Commercial Cars first tractor conversion and was based on the Fordson E27N Major. As such it used the petrol/TVO engine and was a light and cheaper machine than the heavier crawlers being built by the likes of Caterpillar and International Harvester. It became a better machine once Ford started offering the Major with the Perkins P6 diesel engine, the increase in power and torque giving the CFT a much better performance. The CFT was built at Fleet in Hampshire until the early 1950s, being replaced by the County Model Z crawler, based on the Fordson E1A Major.

The New Holland Series 60 tractors were launched in 1996 and were very important as they were the first new tractors to combine features of both the Ford and Fiatagri tractor lines; the new 100 to 160hp six-cylinder machines being built at Basildon in Essex and incorporating cabs from the Ford Series 40 range with many Fiatagri Winner components plus new transmission options, electronic functions and new styling based on the Series 70 tractors introduced two years earlier, which were also the first tractors to be launched in both Ford blue and Fiatagri terracotta colours. The Series 60 was also produced as the terracotta M Series, both being otherwise identical. The Series 60/M Series would have a fairly limited production life in original form as an updated version was introduced by the end of the 20th century known as the New Holland TM range.

From 1929 the Ford Motor Company began production of the Fordson Model N in a factory in Cork in Ireland. The Model N was an update of the original Fordson Model F which had been built in Michigan in the USA and, briefly, at Cork previously. One of teh most distinctive features was the use of long rear mudguards with small toolboxes in the bottom, an idea first seen on teh Model F and designed to prevent the tractor rearing backwards if its trailed implement hit an immoveable object in the soil. Production was moved to Dagenham in Essex in 1932 with a reworked Model N

Muir-Hill were a firm that had for many years used Fordson tractors as skid units to produce everything from shunting tractors, to loading shovels, dump trucks and even rail locomotives. Originally based in Manchester the cmpany changed hands multiple times and in 1966 was based in Gloucester still producing machines based on Ford tractor skid units, especailly loading shovels. That year saw them produce their first four wheel drive tractor with the big yellow Muir-Hill 101 being a 108hp six-cylinder four wheel drive tractor based on the Ford 5000. This tractor was such a success by 1969 it had been joined by two other models and more followed during the 1970s

Ford launched the all-new 6X range in 1964, designed to replace not only the American built models but also the Fordson line built in Dagenham in Essex. The new four model range whihc comprised the three-cylinder 2000, 3000 and 4000 and the four cylinder 5000 was built in a brand new purpose built factory in Basildon in Essex as well as in Antwerp in Belgium and in the USA, with various changes made to teh base models to suit various markets around the world. Thus this range of tractors brought the disparate tractor operations in different parts of teh world together in one unified range. As well as sophisticated optional features such as Select-O-Speed powershift transmission, the new tractors were also well equipped in general. Several changes were made during teh life of the four models to addrress some teething mechanical issues inlcuding a more powerful version of teh 5000 in 1967 before the whole range was revamped in 1968 as the Force range

The Fordson Model N was the basis for many conversions, with Roadless Traction producing a full crawler version from 1929 when the N was built in Ireland right through the Dagneham era up to 1944. Roadless were experts in tracked vehicles and had already made several tractor conversions before turning to the Fordson and also afterwards. The full track Roadless was found to be rather unstable when used by the RAF on airfileds and so a forecarriage arrangement was added turning it into a half-track

The Ford Series 40 range was a leap in technology for the Ford tractor when it was launched in 1991 with four and six cylinder models from 75 to 120hp (later 125hp). It included two main versions called the SL and SLE, the former being a more basic variant with standard manual controls and later on a Dual Power transmission, while the SLE models pushed the envelope with full electronic control of the rear linkage and hydraulics, digital performance monitor, and a semi-powershift transmission. The Series 40 also featured new Powerstar engines and a new cab sourced from Sekura and had vitually nothing in common with its Series 10 Generation III predecessors

When Ford introduced the new 6X tractor in 1964 Ernest Doe & Sons altered their existing Doe Triple-D tandem tractor to take the new Ford 5000 skid unit, rather than the earlier Super Major. The new machine was much more powerful and was now called the Doe 130, reflecting the power output of the two 5000 engines used

The Fordson Model F evolved from its early 1917 incarnation with improved features that increased its popularity in its native North America. The tractor was also extensively exported around the world and was also produced in Ireland for a time. Although it had changed the way many farmers looked at tractors when it was introduced and provided the ideal form of motive power on small family run holdings, Americans soon found it rather basic when compared to the machines offered by the competition, although the Fordson almost always worked out cheaper to buy! It was replaced by the very similar updated Model N in 1929, built not in the USA, but in Cork in Ireland

When Ford launched the brand new 6X 1000 Series tractors in 1964 County Commercial Cars based in Fleet in Hampshire soon had new versions of its Super-4 and Super-6 ready using the new skid unit and called the 654 and 954 respectively. Keeping the famous equal size wheel four wheel drive concept, the new tractors were soon joined by additonla models including the short lived turbocharged 854T, 1004 and the 1124 as well as the forward control FC machines. All except the four cylinder 654 and 854T used six-cylinder Ford industrial engines

The Ford 40 Series was launched in 1991 featuring six four and six cylinder models and coincided with the Ford New Holland group being bought by Fiat. The tractors were very new and the most sop[histicated to carry the Ford name with electronic controls, the 5640, 6640, 7740 and 7840 being offered with either the more basic SL specification or with the top SLE spec whihc incuded a semi-powershift gearbox. The bigger 8240 and 8340 came with SLE as standard. A Dual Power option was later added to teh SL specification and in the mid-1990s the Ford name was joined by a New Holland leaf emblem on the front of teh bonnet and a blue rook. The last models were branded as New Holland with small changes made and a new colour scheme

The Ford Series 30 tractors were introduced in 1989 and produced until 1994. They replaced the TW range, the biggest change being black rear mudguards and radiator grille instead of the earlier white and the addition of a full powershift transmission. The old Dual Power was still offered as an option but most buyers went for the new state of the art powershift system controlled by a single small lever. Three models were sold in Britain: the 8630, 8730 and 8830 with an additonal 8530 sold in North America
