I saw a Fordson Dexta in 1982 at the former Airco Carbide plant in Louisville, Kentucky. It was connected to a rotary motor but was sitting with a pool of oil under it. There are some interesting aspects of working in a calcium carbide plant. The link mentions that the Dexta was a copy of a gray Ferguson and likely a better tractor.
