• Sort of OT question for the Ford tractor guys...my nephew was just given a 1943 2N. Nobody wants them, or a choice gift? Looks pretty good in the pictures. *NM*
  • Sturdy little work horse of a tractor for sure... Do you know if it has magneto and hand crank. Some of the wartime N2s did. *NM*
    • I'll find out tomorrow. Wants to see if he can rig a snow plow on it. *NM*
      • Good luck with that. Early hydraulics--more expensive than may be worth. *NM*
  • Click on enclosed LINK to find more details on Henry Ford's Famous "N" series. There's a 1/24 Heller Ferguson kit (#81401) which is very much like the Ford N. *NM* *LINK*
    • Here's a video of Dearborn plow for Ford Ns.... *NM* *LINK*
    • Saw one at the LHS in Muskegon the other day, almost grabbed it *NM*
  • Too early development to till with. DO NOT till--will rip out PTO--tractor then worthless. Can brush hog mow just fine, though. *NM*
  • Still useful and good parts availability. My brother has an 8N he uses to mow woods trails. *NM*
