The Fordson Tractor Pages Forum

Well, my 1953 Major Diesel now has a refurbished seat painted the right shade of Empire Blue and identified as the "de luxe" seat option, which has a plain rubber pad, easily renewed with self adhesive neoprene strip and the radiator grilles are blue, not orange, the colour of the 54 Major I drove as a kid (I never recall seeing orange grilles until the Dexta came out). It looks, and somehow feels, so much better!

Cannot recall seeing any Fordson Major with an orange grill.
From memory the delux seat option ( referred to as the Extra Comfort Seat) cost over 8 Pounds (Australian) extra in 1959.
