Default My Fleet Is Growing

My "new" ear!y 9N Ford Ferguson from the Henry/Harry handshake fame.
Not a Model A but I think it pairs well with my 130A.
70 plus's years old and still a workhorse.

Here is a photo of me on my first tractor, and a photo of the Ford 8N I restored in 1992.

Tractors look great. We had 8N's on the farm as a kid. Good memories. Thanks. Jeff

Nice looking tractor, I assume it's going to be a worker. Here's my '48 8n a companion to my '41 coupe.

Been working the ##& out of a 47 8n for as long as I can remember, can't kill it tough tractor, just dug out from under a 3ft snowfall with it a week ago. I think ford built some pickups in the 40's that used the tractor engine.

Ford 8/9n are close enough --carry on... My late Dad had on when I was young. Had the engine rebuilt.... Was a good Learning experience and how not to OVER chock an engine

So for me seeing these tractors is see my dad.. It's been 10 years but thanks for the post and the little reminder of my Dad.
