yes there was a 355
What's the difference between a 355 and a 360 then? Wet brakes?

I can remember a neighbour having a 355 it was an early red cab model.3 cylinder turbo 8 speed boxnot entirely sure but iirc the 355 was the early red cab ones and the 360 was the later silver cabbed ones. i dont think they were sold at the same time. all 300 series had wet brakes with different amount of discs identified by the number of notches on the trumpet housing. all except the 342, had outer epicyclic reduction hubs, standard duty upto 390t and heavy duty on 398 and 399.
There were around 517,000 TE20s and 140,000 TO20s manufactured, 380,000 MF35s between 1957 and 1964 and 350,000 MF 135s manufactured since 1965.out of intrest was any other tractor ever built in anywhere near the numbers as 135s were, apart from the grey fergie
Was there not more grey Fergusons than that? I'm pretty sure I seen a photo of Harry Ferguson on his million th tractor n it was grey. That would have been in Colin Frasers book Harry Ferguson, inventor and pioneerThere were around 517,000 TE20s and 140,000 TO20s manufactured, 380,000 MF35s between 1957 and 1964 and 350,000 MF 135s manufactured since 1965.
I love 'facts'.Was there not more grey Fergusons than that? I'm pretty sure I seen a photo of Harry Ferguson on his million th tractor n it was grey. That would have been in Colin Frasers book Harry Ferguson, inventor and pioneer
I will get the book from dad next time I get him in the right moodI love 'facts'.
No that is probably correct multi, ours is no 440656, March 1955, with a Massey-Harris-Ferguson plate.Was there not more grey Fergusons than that?

So I must be thinking about a different book. Dad must have thousands of them. Pretty sure it's the same book that shows Harry driving his tractor down the stairs in claridagesNo that is probably correct multi, ours is no 440656, March 1955, with a Massey-Harris-Ferguson plate.
Not got that photo in my copy

I too could be wrong. It certainly wouldn't be the first time!The last T20 was produced in 1956 and I think there were a total of 657,000 TE20s andTO20s made. But I could be wrong.
the reason for driving the tractor down the stairs was that somebody said it was awkward n clumsy. Or words to that effect
