What was the sexiest tractor ever built?

I'm with you on these two orchard models. Real tractors, but sleek, and no silly cabs.

I'm going to chime in on the Massey 135 as a top OEM 'looker'. IMO that paint scheme would look 'sexy' on any tractor.

“ Silly cabs? “
Seriously?

For old it would be hard to beat the MM.

For newer models the CIH 7100 and 7200 series Magnums are up there,
Going back a bit the Oliver "50"and "55"series and the 460 and 560 Farmalls are also good

I saw this one sitting outside and I liked the shape, I bet it was a good looking tractor when new, not like the plastic aesthetically unappealing many of us have today.

I havent seen many really good looking tractors since I havent been interested for very long but someone made something in the 40s or 50s that had alot of style, the curves just never ended.

Id like to buy one today if I could figure out the model and a decent price

I would also like to find a trailer like this

I remember my dads first tractor had front wheels like that. I recall it was blue. Now this is about 68 years ago yet I can remember him complaining how dangerous those front wheels were and everytime he hit a bump it would try and tear the steering wheel out of his hands. He reckoned he was going to finish up with a broken arm. He got rid of it and bought a David Brown Cropmaster that he kept for many years before going diesel.

I'm kinda surprised this thread has went this far without this tractor being mentioned. The John Deere 4020 brought farming into it's current state. Arguably the most dependable, productive, diesel tractor made in it's day. All of these traits make it a very "sexy" tractor for any farmer type 60 years old or older. What a classic. Still brings top dollar. Very common to find them with 15,000 hours on the original powertrain.
