Projects Tractor Restoration and Painting

Ford 8N

This Antique Ford 8N tractor comes from a wholesale nursery in Triangle, New York where it is used daily. It is great to see that individuals enjoy these antique tractors and that see they see the value of restoring them. It is quite possible to put more money into a antique tractor than what they are valued at, but if you were to put that same money into a new tractor you would not be able to get the same quality, and size of tractor.

The rear axle shaft splines were wore causing fluid to leak onto the brakes causing them not to work. We replaced the axles, bearings, seals and brakes, repaired the governor, hydraulics, and ignition. And finally new rear rims and tubes were installed.

Ford tractor paint was applied to this Ford 8N tractor after minor body repairs were made to the tin.
