Support your local demo derby.

An unintended Foghat reference! lol

Joking aside, what actual model if any does this represent from Ford?

The Mustang II is a Mustang too!
Another new one to me. I admit, I never paid much attention to tractors previously...

Weren't the Ford tractors known as Fordsons? I could be way off, considering I am basing this on one half remembered article from one issue of Hemmings Motor News read circa 2 and a half years ago.

I like it, for what that's worth. (There are not many Ford products I dislike)

Fordson was actually the brand name Henry Ford used to sell his tractors beginning in 1917. As it turned out, another crafty individual actually copyrighted the name if memory serves me correctly, thus Henry Ford couldn't call his own tractors 'Fords'. By the mid 60s or so the Fordson name would be dropped all together though the 'Ford' name was used for the 8N and other models in the 1940s.
