I met a mechanic in KS that had a 9N with a straight six. The hood on the thing looked 8 ft long but it was painted gray and red factory colors. He said it had been used on a military base to move airplanes. It had a hitch on the back and front to move the planes.

Funk conversion. The Ford tractor dealer would buy a crate industrial Ford flathead six (or V8) and the conversion kit marketed by the Funk Aircraft Co. and create a Funk/Ford 6 or V8. I own two of the 6’s. Ford corporation did nothing to stop this. It gave the dealers a more powerful tractor to sell and Ford sold both the tractor and the crate engine. The dealers could always use the leftover four cylinder engine because farmers were always totaling out engines and needing replacements.

@jamesdiehl8690 Жыл бұрын

@@bobjohnston8316 It might have been one of those! He had a regular 8N but he took my friend and I into his shop and there sat the 9N. It looked similar to the 8N, but it was a lot bigger. Taller tires, longer hoof and two more cylinders. The 8N looked pretty small next to it!

Both thumbs up for that one. No 2N's and the 9's seem to be getting rare. Those bug tractors were really cool though. I thought the one that had gear driven rear wheels was impressive. The casting that incorporated the gear and the spokes as one piece couldn't have been easy to make. Thanks man.

He looked like Hoss on Bonanza. The 1st I drove by myself was a 1930's Grey and red small Gasoline Ford with a triple hitch pick up Discs. With wooden bearings. Fordson to Ferguson. 135 to 175 Diesel. 1960's. All great and still plowing 😁

The gold colored Select-O-Speeds were factory paint. Each dealer was encouraged to order one in gold paint and use it for demonstrations and for exhibit at the county fair and so on. Unfortunately, the Select-O-Speed automatic transmission had problems that took years to work out. Gold demonstrators or not, SOS was not popular and farmers stuck with the manual transmission models.

@davidvogel6359 Жыл бұрын

A friend has a golden jubilee with a select o speed and it refused to move one time. He took the covers off, cleaned out the transmission, put new fluid in it and it has been working fine since. The sos transmissions were not reliable like the gear ones were so i have heard. We never had any fords but I drove a red Ferguson that had the exhaust underneath the right foot board. Was miserable to run with your foot burning. That stupidity was enough to make me not like ford/Ferguson designs.

@noelstractors-firewood57 Жыл бұрын

Thanks very much for the video. It was great. I think the 1953 jubilee had live hydraulics, the 8N did not. I have a set of front 75 lb wheel weights that have the EnFo on them. Was told it meant England Ford. I have those weights on my rear wheels of my Case 446 garden tractor. Fit perfect.

@SteamCrane Жыл бұрын

Have a 1954 NAA (post Jubilee) that came with a Sherman overdrive. Stupid fast. Unfortunately, previous owner hadn't tightened the mounting bolts, so the Sherman slipped back and stripped the special driveshaft. Used or NOS Sherman driveshafts were unavailable at the time, so we took it out and installed a standard driveshaft. Still have it, so if somebody starts making the driveshaft, it could go back in. Tractor had been severely abused, hub splines stripped, took a while to make it usable.

@MichaelTJD60 Жыл бұрын

Lots of good variety there and some pretty rare pieces too. Neat to see an industrial there also. I have the 340A which is the updated version of the 340 - looks like someone changed out the front bolster, axle, and steering to the later welded front axle from a 340A/B, which was a much more durable setup with less hardware to wear out.

I haven't had "Toby Time" in a while, works been very busy and I am just getting into watching a few Squatch videos again. Ironic timing to see this episode. I was just at The Henry Ford Museum (12/30/2022) in Southfield Michigan and saw a beautiful 1952 8-N on display. On the display rail I was shocked to learn Ferguson sued Ford on the use of the three point. Ford had not paid for license to the patent it was the largest comparable court settlement of 1952. Wild stuff!

2:00 side biased tractors are so cool. You'd expect it to be simple to modify any tractor to do that, but it ain't that easy. A lot of noggin power goes into making a good one that's not gonna tip, is able to do all the stuff the regular one does... AND not break the bank making it. If i had more time and dough, i'd start collecting them, they're so much cooler (to me) than regular tractors.
