Fordson New Performance Super Dexta Tractor 1962


The year 1957 marked Ford of UK's return to the compact tractor market with the new 3000lb Dexta. With a squat, low stance, and a low centre of gravity, the Dexta was rated at 32hp and had a hydraulic three-point hitch. The Dexta used a 144ci three cylinder Perkins diesel engine, coupled to a three-speed with a two-range gearbox giving six forward speeds and two reverse. Live power take-off and hydraulics were options. The New Performance Super Dexta was an up-rated Dexta introduced in 1962 offering more power.
