Large Nuffield Universal Tractor (page
350) As (3) but with a different box label,
showing a line drawing of the model.
David Brown 25D tractor (page
351) As (8) and (9), but this is a one-off model of
the tractor originally owned by Eric Percival, Vice President and
General Manager of David Brown Tractors (Canada) Ltd who died in
Toronto in 1984. It was found in his loft after his death, and it
is thought to have been used as a styling exercise to show the new
livery of the David Brown 900 tractor launched in 1956. The hubs
and grille were re-painted either by David Brown or Denzil Skinner in
French blue to replicate the livery of the forthcoming 900 Tractor.
