Green Acres

[Anonymous-0]

I saw a rerun of the 60's tv show Green Acres. There were two tractors used on the show, one was used to introduce the show and had rubber tires. The other one used on the rest of the show was known as the Hoyt Clagwell and it had steel wheels. It looked similiar to a Fordson. Can anyone identify the two tractors?

The Hoyt Clagwell is a Fordson. The one at the beginning of show is a JD GP

That's the 4,372ND time that's been asked here! (JUST KIDDING!)

The Deere-looking one IS a DEERE, Model GP, IIRC, and the Forson-looking one IS a Fordson.

A quick site search turned up the post below:

Story is that Ford was a big sponsor of the show and wanted the JD replaced by a Ford product.
