My 8N is the same year as me 1948.
Now that is cool.
Must be so aggravating to see what stupid things people concern themselves with today
Far better than any tractor built today. Have a ford 860 best tractor I've ever owned.
I am so glad you came and picked up that little tractor from me. I get a kick out of Little Lucy just chugging along outworking all your other tractors you have. Seems like they go down and Little Lucy still goes. Thanks for bringing life to her again.
She is a tank now that we got the electrics and carb sorted! She pulled my F350 dually out of the mud last night!
They do look really cool.
"They don't make them like they used to." Growing up in the Midwest, the old Ford N tractors were the very definition work horses. Very, very robust and built for reliability. They made them easily serviceable and maintainable by the average Farmer Joe. Absolute work horses to this day. If I had more land, I'd love to have one! Great vid Brian!
Thanks Brett! They really are robust.
Happy New Year to Flannel Farms. God keep you safe, healthy and WARM!
Great piece of equipment
Flip your left rear tire aound, driving my OCD mind crazy.....lol. I have 2 Jubilees here, great tractors.
Haha, it is to confuse my persuers who try and follow my tracts!
I bought the tire already on the rim and bolted it on there.
They aren't even the same size in the back. When I go to replace them, I'll get them faced the right way.
I learned how to drive on an 8N when I was 9 years old. These little tractors are great and you can't kill em
Those old tractors are some of the best ya can buy. Simple AND easy to work on. Wishing y'all a blessed day.
I have a 1940 9n and a 1952 8n the 1940 I believe has a Sherman transmission high / low lever and a 3 speed. the 52 has a 4 speed 😊
Awesome!
We use to cut and bail hay with one of those back in the early 60"s. Great transportation if we have an EMP attack! They will work!
You have some of the neatest toys.
All i know is that i want one.
I have a 2N and Jubilee. Recent Jubilee acquisition upped the level of acreage management immensely. I'm part of the fan base😊
Awesome
Nice 2024 ford tractor
I have a late 40s 8n I got for about 1200 and it is a work horse to be sure. My one thing I wish they could do is tow a bailer. The reason they can't is most bailers of the time like the old New Holland bailers would actually have their own engine so you could crank up the bailer engine while pulling it slow. My understanding is modern tractors you can control the pto and drive speed separately. I want to add a disc plow and drag harrow to mine.
woohoo! like number 99!
I still can't believe how cheap these tractors sell for. I love my old 2N.
Sorry I missed the live, as you were coming on, my brother called me. Lol good video on the tractor. My husband has been " dropping hints" for awhile so I'm sure one will show up here eventually. Have a great evening Brian
The Massey Ferguson 35 is very similar. It also has the ability to run the PTO with a two-stage clutch which is very handy when brush hogging. Super easy to maintain and very very similar to the jubilee. I wanted to get a jubilee but came across a MF35 and now I absolutely love the thing.
I will say though not all Massey Ferguson 35s have the two-stage clutch. So if you do look at one check to see if it has it. If it doesn't, it's essentially the same as a Ford 8N.
I'd love an old Furgy! I really like the older late 40s early 50s smaller tractors. Probably some of the best made ever regardless of brand.
@@FlannelFarms For a long time and before he launched his own brand, Harry Ferguson was the Chief engineer at Ford. So these tractors look a bit alike for a reason...
@samueldougoud3289 the Ferguson 20s and 30s are nearly identical from what I've seen.
I don’t know what year Ford tractor we had when I was growing up but I think the age was around your tractor or older. Loved that tractor. It was the first vehicle I ever drove, at seven. 😉
Thats awesome! I believe my kids drove a golfcart first, but in terms of a heavier vehicle this is their first!
I got a 661 Workmaster that starts on the button and a 601 I am getting ready to rebuild. These tractors last forever.
We owned a 9N when I was younger. Great tractor. Seems the thing that failed the most was the battery.
Happy New Year!
Yes they are good work tractor and have questions to ask you
Ask away
Tire is on backwards 😮 otherwise I agree 👍
Thats the one I bought, it was mounted that way and since it worked and already had antifreeze in it, I left it.
Someday I may fix it, although at this point it is becoming my signature look.
This is what I think about it!! I wish I had a tractor, too. 😢 (Thanks for the info.)
Duuude....you got us lookin'...
Thanks🙏🙏
👍👍😊😊💕💕
Thanks for telling us about a great tractor for a small hobby farm like us! So 1953/54 Ford Jubilee tractor is the best in your opinion for a small farm. So great to know! Love it! Thanks so much Brian! I was wondering what tractor we should get at some point for our 6 acres of field! So 8 end late model too! I hope your Christmas and New Years was wonderful for the Flannel family! Such good things to mention about them. Thanks!
Yes! A 54 was a NAA 600 I believe, and the 600-800 series in the 50s were good, just not as common or as cheap as the 53 or the 8N. There is a 8N for sale around the corner from me that works for 1k!
@@FlannelFarms Thanks for spelling those since I don't know the tractor models and knowing it's 8N is great! I'm in Minnesota so that would be quite the haul! Thanks for the tractor advice Brian!
I'm sure they have some floating around in Minnesota as well :)
I just used my area so I could back up with details what I was saying.
Our first tractor was a Ford 8N. Great tractor! Congrats on getting 8000 subscribers!
Thank you!
Put a sickle bar mower on it. Ted and run a small older sq baler and on and on. Today's compact tractors have become shamelessly over priced. I'm with you 100 percent.
I've access to a sickle mower but haven't had time to puck it up and mess with it. I'm looking forward to trying it out though!
@@FlannelFarms that's another sore spot with me. A new sickle bar mower is 5 to over 7 k now. I don't know where we're headed in this country.
@tommartin8155 I believe it will get worse before it gets better. But chin up my friend, we will prevail eventually!
I'm not sure your location, but I've seen them used for 1500 and less.
I've said this many times...so MUCH better than a lawn tractor, often for less money..I've got an 801 Powermaster..same money tas a jubilee, with a little more power and live pto. Sorry, but I don't feel so positive about 8n's. At 10 years old, I thought we had died and gone to heaven when dad traded the 8n in for the 801.
801s are a massive upgrade to the 8ns, but can cost a lot more
Are the old pto & 3 pt hitch systems compatible with modern attachments designed for compact tractors?
Yes! From the 9N forward they were the same.
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What the hell, man? You're gonna drive up the prices!!! There are some secrets you shouldn't tell!!!
I doubt my little audience will cause a rush on them! But, that said, I try and help out my people! :)
Great info. Here’s a cool update there is a possibility we may be able to rent to own or owner finance a 12.5 ac property that has 4 bed 2.5 bath. Friends from church own it and are thinking of selling, they currently don’t live there. The wife is open to the idea and is going to talk to her hubby about it. Hoping and praying it works out
Sweet!!
It must be drastically different in your area compared to mine, around here people give stupid money for those little fords. You can easily buy a 50 -75 horse tractor with hydraulics cheaper around here.
Wow, really? May I ask your region? I'm in Eastern VA.
@@FlannelFarms southwest Nebraska
Around here you can buy a 300, 350, 400, 450, 460, 560 Farmall or a 190 Allis Chalmers or something similar and some even have loaders for anywhere from 2500 to 6000 on the very top end. You won't find one of those ford's in usable shape for under 3000.
Loaders around here are the higher end stuff, 5-8k normally for stuff like the ford 3000-5000 series sizes.
@@FlannelFarms we have so many small acreage people moving out of town and building developments out of town that they have exploded the small tractor market to a point that they are almost unaffordable around here
