Clean up your puddles.

[Green Horn]

Looking at antique tractors for my Dad to have out on his land. Should I assume the puddle under the diff is from something else?

If I were to call on this one I think I'd be questioning that. Beautiful looking tractor IMO.

Is he going to be using it, or is it to look at?

 

[Green Horn]

He/ we plan to use it. We're actually looking more towards a Ford 8N. I like the Farmall's more but it's his money. :) It'll serve light duties like mowing and draggin' trailers around the property. I'm sure a box blade will be on it too. We're trying to get a storage building up on the property first.

 

[Green Horn]

He has 10 acres total. There's about 3+ acres that are flat and wide open. Gonna put a MX track right there.

So you can watch other people ride?

:rotfl: That one left a mark :rotfl:

That was just an attention getter for the idiots on here. Obviously it worked. :cool: I/ we ain't puttin' no damn track out on his land. I want to plant some corn or crap like that. That's alot more fun than riding dirtbikes anyways. Gonna be tough though as I heard farming 4 acres makes it tough to turn seeders, pickers, etc... Anybody wanna trade a Farmall B for a '96 KTM? :nener:

 

[Patman]

You got a barelt used paddle tire, use it to till and plant. I'm sure you could rig up something so you wouldn't actually have to ride it (Heaven forbitd).

 

[Green Horn]

Sweet! I see where you're going. Maybe run the PTO of the tractor over to the countershaft on the KTM. Thanks man! :cool: :yikes:

 

[Patman]

It's an EG360 I suspect it makes more power than the tractor! Mount the bike in a wheelbarrow frame and fire it up then just push it around to hoe your row.

Ford 8n does cost more then the Farmall, but also have more parts available. You can also get an Oliver 88 or 77 for probably about the same price and they run good to, but again parts a bit harder.

If you plan to use it look for one that has been converted to a 12v system. If you were closer I have an Oliver 88, but you'd sepnd more on shipping it or hauling it then it's worth.

We had a 77 when I was a kid. Funky gear pattern on that thing!

 

[bsmith]

Ya the double H can be a bit funky :)

This might have an easier pattern and has a more unique name

Too bad you are so far away, I have a nice 8n for sale!
