Can anyone identify this? It’s in the middle of the Sahar a in 1959, if that helps

SFV 402, or something similar ? I just looked for 1950s French Tractors

Im going for the obvious, Massey Ferguson.....

Additional answers:

Zetor, Deutz, Case, Sama? (Croatian rural life has taught me a lot....sort of...)

It appears to be a hot-bulb-type single cylinder semi- diesel tractor in the style of a Lanz Bulldog.

It’s not a Field Marshal, due to the stack location, but I’m not sure it’s a Lanz...

It might be an SFV... France, and Africa and all... but the SFV’s have pretty distinctive sty ling.

Could be a Landini... The Italians made lots of machines like that.

I think it appears to have a four letter name on the front, which makes sense as a LANZ, but it could be any number of machines like it.

ooh, I think you’ve got it, the flywheel looks right too. It might be a licence-built or CKD version for the African market, as the faring is a bit different.

This 551 might match a little better in the front? Definitely something along those lines, though.

Well, certainly a hot bulb engine and doesn't look like a Lanz so something similar but French.
