After the new showrooms had opened. Mr Cooper was joined, by his two sons, Peter and James. That must have been a very proud moment in his life.

The company now became a limited company 'W. J. Cooper and Sons Ltd'.

It was during this time that Masey Harrison took over Ferguson and insisted that all their agencies go over to full line products. Cooper's were offered the Ferguson Tractor, which meant the Ford Tractor agency had to be forfeited. This was a very hard decision to take as Fords had always been good to them.
