The machine came in blue and red livery.

In 1953, Joe Bamford developed the world’s first backhoe loader by adding a backhoe onto the back of a Major Loader - essentially a Fordson tractor with a hydraulic excavator at the rear, a Major Loader at the front and an optional cab. The JCB logo also appears for the first time.

Building on the success of 1960's JCB 4 backhoe loader, which replaced the Hydra-Digga Loadall, in 1961 the JCB 3 sets more trends with the ability to dig tight up against a wall. It was presented at the Cristal Palace Plant show in the summer of 1961.

In 1977 the wraps came off the Loadall telescopic handler, a machine which revolutionized the way loads were handled on both construction sites and on farms. The Loadall has gone on to be one of the most successful products in JCB's history.
