Ursus C-328 tractor T-shirt – a gift for tractor fans

The Ursus C-328 is an exceptionally sleek model, standing out among the other tractors produced by the Ursus Mechanical Works in Warsaw. Its production lasted from 1963 to 1968, during which over 75,000 units were delivered to Polish farmers. The C-328 was the successor to the Ursus C-325, hence their almost familial resemblance – in short, our hero today looks like a natural brother to the C-325 model.

The Ursus C-328 was the result of modernizations carried out by the Warsaw plants – compared to its predecessor, it had a more powerful 28 HP engine, and its overall efficiency was increased through a series of improvements in the hydraulic system. One of the unusual advantages of the Ursus C-328 – apart from its low fuel consumption – is its ease of starting in winter, which meant that brave farmers didn't have to wrestle with a stubborn machine in bitter frost.

The Ursus C-328 features an elegant body, whose hood design resembles the tasteful passenger cars of that period. The gleam of the Ursus C-328's cherry paintwork is no different from the shine flowing along the rounded bodywork of luxurious machines that could be found in the city. The only thing our hero needs is a thorough wash and polish to present itself with big-city chic.
