Fordson Super Dexta 2000 diesel

Here's a Fordson Super Dexta 2000 at the Missouri River Steam Show. Looks like it has some mods on it. The Super Dexta was made in England by Ford's English division, I believe. It is a Diesel.

Greg, I would guess that the machine in your pic is more likely to be original. Note the holes for headlights in my pic. Not sure about the hood handles. Look like they could be original. Probably came from from the auto division! The seat is in excellent shape for being about 40 yrs old.

Moe,

Sorry, found the pic for the same side. No handles on this side. Interesting grill design with the lights, almost "Edsel" like. Note the front frame difference..looks like a bolt on frame.

The owner probably fab'd that to protect the "Edsel " grill, which looks kind of susceptible to damage.
