This 1951 Ford 8N tractor is said to have been acquired by the late owner in 1994 and subsequently refurbished. It is powered by a 120ci side-valve inline-four paired with a four-speed manual transmission and equipped with a rear power take-off, a rear three-point hitch assembly, dual headlights, rear half fenders, and side steps. This 8N Tractor is now offered at no reserve by the seller on behalf of the owner’s estate in New York with a bill of sale.
Ford produced the 8N series from 1947 to 1952. The engine cover and fenders on this example feature Ford script and are finished in gray primer, while the frame, drivetrain, and suspension are finished in red. Features include dual headlights, rear half fenders, and side steps. The front emblem is missing, and various body imperfections are visible in the gallery.
The red-finished 16″ and 28″ steel wheels wear a mixed set of tires. The rear wheels feature reversible center dishes, and braking is handled by independent rear drums. The tiresshow cracking, the left-rear wheel has a broken stud, and the right-front wheel is missing a lug nut.
The steel spring-suspended operator’s seat is finished in red. Controls consist of a hand throttle behind the steering wheel, a clutch pedal on the left, and twin brake levers on the right. The shift lever is centrally mounted atop the transmission case.
The black three-spoke steering wheel sits ahead of a proofmeter, an ammeter, an oil pressure gauge, a choke control, and a keyed ignition switch. The hour meter shows 3,300 hours of runtime, approximately 50 of which were added under current ownership.
The gasoline-fueled 120ci side-valve inline-four was rated at approximately 23 drawbar horsepower, and power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission.
The tractor is equipped with a rear power take-off as well as a hydraulically-lifted three-point hitch assembly.
