The David Brown 780 Wheel Tractor is a compact utility tractor designed for general farm work, smallholding operations, and light industrial tasks. David Brown was a respected British manufacturer of agricultural machinery, known for building robust tractors that became workhorses across farms and estates throughout the mid-to-late twentieth century.
This example is a 2x2 (two-wheel drive) configuration with 46 horsepower, making it well-suited to moderate cultivation, haulage, and implement work on smaller holdings and mixed farms. The Selectamatic transmission provides operator flexibility for varying field and transport conditions.
The tractor has recorded 5,335 hours of use. It runs and starts very well, indicating sound mechanical condition throughout the engine and fuel system. The chassis is described as very straight and original, suggesting the bodywork and frame remain in honest, unmodified condition. The rear tyres are as new, a significant wearing item that adds practical value and removes immediate replacement costs. Overall, the machine presents as a well-maintained example ready for continued work.
