I had a 4N and loved it. I did not know that Ford was making tractors past the 60's. What year did they stop or did they just sell to someone else.

I do not know what year but at some point they sold out to New Holland which had been purchased by Fiat. Fiat still owns CNH or Case/New Holland. The Ford name was allowed to be used after the purchase for a number of years.
Hope that helps.
Happy Tractoring

Mid-90's is when everything changed over. The FarmTrac utility line of tractors are your early 90 Ford tractors...tough and reliable.

The "official" date that Fiat took full control is reported as being 1996.
