The Waltanna Company of Tarrington, Victoria, Australia built Articulated tractors in the 1980s for Ford for sale in Australia.

History[]

The company was founded by James Nagorcka in 1975. Beginning in 1986, Waltanna built these 4WDs tractors to resemble the existing Ford TW series of tractors.[1] Waltanna also built tractors under their own brand of Waltanna. The company ceased building 4WD tractors in 1989.

A tracked model was developed with Track Marshall of the United Kingdom. They began building tracked tractors from 1989 until 1992. The rubber track technology has been sold or licensed to other manufacturers.[2][3]
