David Brown – a formidable force in Tractors. Love the colours in that.

Thanks Andy. It is a shame to see companies with a name like this go out of business, or in this case out of the business they were famous for. I understand they still make heavy duty drive trains, for tanks and such.

Farm tractors have long working lives. Any idea how old this one might be. Th company stopped making tractors a long time ago I think. Someone has gone berserk with the spray paint, perhaps in an attempt to rust proof the vulnerable parts. It has a new looking alternator drive belt so maybe its still in regular use.

Hi Val. It is one of this model and so could date between 1961 and 1980. I rather think from the overall condition and appearance it is at the more recent end of that range.
