Classic 1954 Pony Tractor, BUT NOT A Massey Harris. This One Is A Ferguson!

- We visit with outstanding collector Bill Parrish in Missouri for the story behind a Pony tractor that was not well loved when it came on the market back in 1954. Most farmers wanted Massey Harris colors, but this one was painted and sold as a Ferguson -- so it was Ferguson gray. Out of the ordinary for sure, but still a sweet little farm tractor, don't you think?

Hey Mr. Bill Parrish, love the little Pony, from a fellow Missourian, thanks for sharing your wonderful tractor(s) with us! Have a great day!
Bill lives locally to me and he has some very nice tractors!!
Good looking tractor. We had several Fergusons on our farm. 20, 30, 35 with a loader. Perfect for small farm work. Thanks for sharing this kind sir!
Was nice to see that it had a PTO shaft. Perfect for running elevators and augers.
I’m honestly surprised how often tractors get rebranded like the Jacobsen garden tractors that got rebranded to many different brands
Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable.
That small gray pony tractor has been restored very nicely. Looks wonderful. Like a new one-ha!!!!!
Mr. Parrish has done a great job with it. Really like his Massey Harris collection you showed us. Very nice collection overall.
Thanks again for a great video and a nice pony tractor.
Thanks.
The Iowa Farm Boy.
This one is a unique one I wish I could come across it
Always been a Ferguson Fan.
That is a pretty little tool , very useful . Great program 👍🇬🇧
Thanks for sharing
There are around 735 grey ponies made. I have two one of them is for sale if anyone is interested. If you want more pony info view Ferguson Enthusiasts of North America.
There are only about 100 left that are still gray i met a older guy who has a few cases, fords and alot of masseys including a gray pony
The short period of Massey Harris - Ferguson independent lines comes off as very dysfunctional in hindsight. Similar to the Pony discussed, the model "50" introduced following the merger took Ferguson design elements and were sold with Massey Harris branding for their dealer network. Supposedly the Ferguson dealers were envious of missing out on a "new" model, which ultimately led to the F40. Save for small aesthetic changes the two were identical in terms of powertrains.
You would be surprised how many people don't realize that the Ford 9N(and 2N, but I won't get into that-that's and entirely different story, most people don't know the 2N exists), was originally painted all medium gray. So many of them were painted red and light gray/white, and done so many years ago, most people think that is the color they are supposed to be. On another note, I have a Massey Ferguson 50 project tractor, which, unfortunately, is missing the data plate on the dash. It was repainted at least twice, and has Massey-Ferguson decals on it(were applied many years ago, when last painted). However, I strongly suspect it may actually be a Massey-Harris 50, as it has the "scallops" on the hood, and I have found what appears to be bronze-colored paint in spots on the chassis castings underneath the brushed-on gray.
