Nuffield from Europe and Nichols & Shepard in North America come to mind.

NORTHROP was a short lived conversion in 1966/7 based on Ford 5000 with either 4 or 6 cylinder engine. The parent company fell on hard times and only a few were sold.
The designer joined another specialist earth moving machinery company called MUIR HILL and took the designs with him creating a very successful line of equel wheeled tractors based on Ford skid units.

New Idea Uni 701 model, 1965, with 727 husking bed and 725 3-30" cornhead

I think that is the same cab used on the Gleaner model A combines. I know of one near my farm that last ran in 1990. Been shedded all these years. They wanted $500 a few years back.

No it is not. No winders........

I had one identical to that one. I replaced the power unit with a 702 after the 701 caught fire.

Hope you like yours. I found out a 325 will pick circles around the one I had.

Superpicker · Oct 11, 2012

Got the 325 model also. I do like the 701, but the 325 doesen't need a battery, no variable speed belt to adjust, less maintenance...
Here are a few other New Idea projects around this place, some working, some getting restored...

Dad had one of those balers when I was a kid. I saw one on an auction one time,might have thought more about buying it if I'd have had a place to store it.

That lawn and garden tractor's a new one on me. Never saw one before.

Nelson 4 wheel drive tractor, one turned up at a rally I was commentating at in Norfolk. MJ

Nice picture of a rare tractor David. This one is owned by the famous Roger Desborough from Suffolk. Roger has brought a lot of early tractors into the UK from the USA and Canada in the last few years. David, are you coming to the National Ploughing Match this weekend. I am stewarding the Vintage Mounted class on Sunday. MJ

The L & G tractor is a rebadged "GE Electrac".
Ran on 6 - 6V batteries, 4 in the hole under the seat and 2 up front. 36V DC motor underneath approx where feets are.
GE sold out to Wheel Horse and they apparently made some under other badges.
