Ford Tractor - Registration EST 52E

Picture taken during 'Tattie Howking' or Potato Picking at Rosefarm on the Black Isle in Scotland. Potatoes were picked by hand here until the 1980s. Anyone know the model of Ford?

that is a ford 5000, the first type they had a heavier front than the smaller 4000 note the back end of this tractor was also used in the small muir hills.

Standard job in October for me, in the early '80s there weren't many machines around in Fife either.
