Shibaura lawn tractors
Originating in 1950 through a collaborative effort between Toshiba and Ishikawajima Harima Industries – known as IHI – Shibaura initially concentrated its efforts on the production of engines and small agricultural tractors. By 1961, the company expanded its capabilities to encompass the creation of compact tractors, and notably, developed a range of these machines specifically for Ford-New Holland.
