Rushton Tractors
From Graces Guide
- AEC built the Rushton tractor at their factory which was based at Walthamstow, England.
- George Rushton intended that his tractor would compete with the Fordson and proceeded to copy the Fordson but it turned out to be heavier and more expensive.
- Ferguson had considered using the Rushton for his hydraulic system but this didn't materialise.
- Wheeled and crawler type tractors were manufactured but the project failed and the company went into receivership in 1932.
