The foremost in four-wheel drive
County Commercial Cars have produced one of the best four-wheel drive machines over the past few decades. Ever since the start in 1950, the products have been far superior than the competition and it was a sad day when the ceased production in 1990.
Back in the early days of the company, they specialised in building crawlers before developing their tractors. Now they have a legendary status and demand a premium, especially the last of the tractors and the flagship 1474 and 1884 models. More recently the marque has become more popular on the restoration scene, competing against the likes of Roadless and Bray.
Enthusiasm hit a high a few years ago, when in 2003 and 2005 the team of County fanatics held a couple of working days in the South West to celebrate the achievements of the manufacturer. Hundreds of tractors from all over the country arrived to work in front of spectators for charity and a good day was had by all. More events like this should be in the pipeline and likely to happen soon.
This website is aimed at collating all the County tractors that are in preservation or still being used for work in one place. It is important to keep a tab on what is left after many have been broken for spares or turned back into Ford skid units.
If you own or run a County we would love to hear from you. We hope to feature as many models with serial numbers as possible and make this the definitive place to find County tractors. We are happy for you to remain anonymous, but all photos of County kit are gratefully received, please use the 'Your Tractor' button for more information.
We look forward to your help in compiling this comprehensive list.
