It looks like an 80's model Shibaura Ford with some mods to the fenders and the headlights. Cannot see the whole engine plate in the pic.

Looking more closely, now I see it is a copy of 80's model Shibaura Fords. So, not being well versed on Chinese tractor history, I don't know. It is an interesting specimen. Does it run well?

Yes runs really well starts on the first turn of the key

Yep, that's a winner. Somehow, it looks better than the Chinese tractors coming into country today.
Ok im new here and didn't know where to post this. Hope yall can help me. I just bought an old ford tractor. I have attached a picture of the codes. I have scoured the net trying to figure out how to read these and here is what I think it is. I think the codes read: CE24C which would indicate that it is a 1970 May 24 Afternoon shift tractor - Fine. The second line reads B*807463 = England Built and the serial number - Fine.
I cant for the life of me figure out the third line as it looks like F105. The F might be an E which would indicate that it is a 5000 series tractor however it is only 3 cylinder not 4 and only has one fuel filter not 2. Given that the paint under the blue (on the engine only) is yellow and that isn't found on the rest of the tractor = I think the engine has been swapped. The engine code is C9 NN 6015 A = means that the engine block is a 1969. Also interesting the gearbox shows that it is C5 NN 7006 which means that it is from a 1965. As I am just now trying to get it running and need to order parts - I need to know what series tractor it really is so that I order the correct parts for it. Also there is no plate on the sheet metal - so that doesn't help.
