Soundguy has a barn full of them and my brothers and I own a NAA and 2 600's. There are several others who own them also.

check out the making hay thread, we work with old tractors every day. I got to say I am more partial to my old farmall than my ford but they both got their uses and the 3 point is oh so nice.

They're here, you have to go W-A-Y to the bottom, under the "Related Equipment" section you'll find "Vintage Tractors" & there's a Ford section.

I do have a Kubota & usually stay towards the top, but still have a 8N & check the Ford section once in a while as well.

I've got 3 farmalls - 44 A, 47 AI, and a 53 Super H in addition to my Kubota. What I really like are the muscle tractors from the late 60's through the 80's. Those are the ones I grew up with. I'd love to have that JD 4020 powershift with an m&w turbo that the family once had, but have neither the land or the money at this point in time. The International 1206 has caught my eye a time or two as well.

Sorry, just saw that you said 'Ford'.

We had a Ford 5000 and a 7700 that I really liked too. Would love to find an 861 powermaster diesel, or a 2000 diesel.

There's a Vintage Tractor forum on TBN that includes a sub-forum devoted to vintage Ford tractors.

I post to the Vintage Tractor forum quite a bit. For example, here's my latest thread on restoring a 1951 Minneapolis Moline BF tractor.

I farmed for several years with an 841 Powermaster with power steering; one of my favorite tractors I ever owned. I saw an 861 recently and had to drag myself away. Then people keep putting 3000, 4000 and 5000 on Craigslist.

Yea I grew up with the 801 and with the passing of my dad. The 801 was retired from work and was restored in his honor

 

[Soundguy]

I like old Fords going back to 1911 T's

The closest Ford Tractor I owned was a sickle bar mower made from Model A running gear...
