This set comprises the first 55 Fordson Tractor with the first 56 model plough and was only available for a short period between late 1961 and 1963 when each component was replaced by a later tractor and later plough, the latter in blue and much simplified.

The Plough in this set would only fit on the Fordson and was accurate but quite awkward to affix. The tractor is beautifully detailed.

The plough is in good condition with just a few  chips to the red paintwork and with complete and clean plastic elements. The tractor is quite rare with plastic orange wheels fitted later in its short production period (before being replaced by a later version with inset headlamps and a revised steering system). It has very nice blue paintwork and the steering mechanism works well. The tyres are a little cracked but original. A lovely example of this scarce set.
