Rare 1939 Ford Aluminum Hood Tractor Headlines Aumann Auctions' Fall Event

Aumann Auctions is set to feature a historic 1939 Ford Aluminum Hood Tractor at its Fall Harvest Auction. This rare piece, part of Don Henley's collection, carries significant historical importance in Ford's agricultural narrative. Produced as one of only 600 units, its aluminum hood distinguishes it in the collectible market.

Don Henley, a devoted Ford enthusiast, acquired this tractor two decades ago, fulfilling a long-held dream. He invested in a comprehensive restoration, resulting in a meticulous "nut-and-bolt restoration." The tractor symbolizes the early collaboration between Henry Ford and Harry Ferguson, especially noted for its three-point hitch design.

The auction will take place from November 3rd to 9th, with enthusiasts having the opportunity to bid on this impeccably restored piece of history.
