Working with my 8N

[Southernspeed]

I’ve got a ‘23 MF that does all the heavy work around here but sometimes it’s just so relaxing and satisfying to run my ‘52. Perfect for tedding! ( Wife took a couple of sneaky photos!)

Good seeing an N at work

Those are great pictures, too.

Thanks, I'll tell her. They were literally just 'snaps' from the kitchen door but she does have nice camera equipment as she does equine event photography as a 'paying hobby'.

The color rendition, sharpness, and composition are all excellent. There is so much sharpness in these that we could probably count the nubs on your 8n tires.

The N are awesome my dad had a Ferguson I wish he didn't sold it they are tuff as nails... very nice picks, plus you look like a bad ass on it.

I saw the photo and said “ look at the face! I was enjoying myself, not pissed!” …. She said something like “ you always look like that “

Of the tractors that have come and gone, the 8N is one I wished I kept. Once you understand it's used and limitations, it's a keeper. Plus, you can fix it with a pair of pliers and couple wrenches.

You said it! I also wish I had kept mine or better yet had bought my SIL's, if I had know it was being sold. It was as near perfect as I have seen in years.

Those are solid photos; set them to grayscale and you would have a hard time dating them.

It really blows my mind how small the N series Fords are, in contrast to the impact they had on agriculture.
