Yesterday I was visiting the LELY plant in Maasland Netherlands, whit the Farmtoyclub. They had 3 tractors to show. One 2 wheeldrive, small one. From this type they had made 6 models they were no succes One prototype, a six wheeler. Whit ford engine. And a 2 wheeldrive LELY hydro 150 based on a ford. They had a hydrostatic transmission. Lely never enter the tractor markets. If I can get pictures from someone I will mail them to Agmachinery

Interesting..... From what I understand they were in the tractor business in the 1970s:
Hydro 90 with a 6 cyl MWM engine and a hydro tranny,with a 80 hp hydraulically driven dual speed pto
Hydro 150 with a 152 hp Ford engine, high/low hydro tranny,and was an early bi-di systems tractor
The prototype forward control Supertrac with a 178hp Perkins engine was never produced

Hi Woodbeef,
too bad to hear about your mom in law. Where did you get the info from about the Lely tractor? I really admire your knowledge. Although I'm also from Holland I didn't even know that. Saw a brochure of these tractors once at the Dutch ag miniature show. Too bad I didn't buy it back then.

Let's not forgett the LELY Multipower twin-engine articulated 420 hp tarctor built in Texas (i think) in the late 1970s.

I will look carefully too, to find a picture. I have the Lely Hydr. 90 miniature (scale 1/32). When I'll get a change to scan a picture I will send. A site with nice foto's from diverse tractors: take a look: www.tractorpulling.nl/foto/merken.htmCan somebody tell me something about the Leyland-models??? any connections with Lely?? |

I've never heard of any connection between Lely and Leyland. Leyland bought Nuffield,which was known as BMC before that. Then Marshall bought Leyland. JWD still makes the old Leyland/Marshall tractors,but with Perkins power,and a different rear axle.
