This was time well spent, not a tractor person, but I do appreciate the effort put in to keep these tractors with us for a few more decdes yet. Well worth the watch....
The Fordson Major and Dexta Diesel tractors are English made. The EnFo logo in that draw bar stands for English Ford. Thanks for posting. I really liked the Model T tractor conversions. Mike
Thank you. I am in San Diego and so don't get to see lots of tractors in one place. I am refurbishing a Golden Jubilee and its my first tractor. Nothing but fun!
That was my 871 select o speed I redid this summer after watching a lot of your videos I got the bug to try my hand at fixing one up myself awesome to see it come full circle
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.
@@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!
Being a Ford tractor guy I enjoyed your walk through.. alot of Golden Jubilee flathead conversions.. didn’t see my 55 - 600 anywhere, my father’s favorite once he felt that power steering..
That ford that was multi directional I wonder if it went the same speed either direction I’m guessing yes very awesome show thanks for sharing buddy I love those flat head conv
My second wife’s father was head of sales for Ford tractor. He negotiated with Kubota to make small tractors with the Ford badge. He retired about the time they sold to New Holland
Very nice Tractors. The Dexta had a different engine then the ferguson it was a little longer Perkins finished it. The Dexta were called a F 3. I own a 1959 Dexta
YOU MISSED ONE THING ON THE 9 N JUST BEFORE THE 2 V-8 REDBELLY TRACTORS!! IT HAD THE SHERMAN OVERDRIVE TRANSMISSION! WAS A GREAT ADD ON FOR THOSE TRACTORS! BOTH OUR 8 AND 9 N TRACTORS HAD ONE AND WE ALSO HAD A FERGUSON 20 WITH A SHERMAN OVER,DIRECT, AND UNDERDRIVE TRANSMISSION!
I appreciate you giving me a a tour I love Ford Tractors Trucks and Cars and tools and clothes and if I left out anything else Ford I love that too! Some of us can’t get out much especially with this inflation so I really enjoyed that that made me forget about my troubles for a few minutes and encouraged me to keep working on my 8Ns! Very good video 😀🇨🇦
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.
Nice walk through. I grew up with a 971 and an 8n. I still have the 971 and I now have 2 8ns and a 2n and some ford implements to go with them. The ford select o speed was first true power shift on the market.
Interesting. We never owned fords so i've only ever driven a few and know little about them.Thanks for the video Squatch. The Model T conversions fascinate me! Especially how they're configured. This one with the cog wheels is good in that the diff isnt overloaded.I've seen some where the wheels directly replace the car wheels.I cant imagine the diff lasting long with such torque loads.
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.
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.
Kinda strange, I’m not a fan of the color blue in general, but the blue 2000 and 4000 look pretty dang sharp. Same for the gold 971s. Good looking iron for sure! I love the old stuff. What they lack in technology and creature comforts, they make up for with style and longevity. Thanks for sharing.
I have my dad and uncles 9N which they bought new in 46,it’s actually a 2N,I made a 3point blade for it,works perfect for landscaping,also have 3point harrows,cultivator,tandem disc,mower,1 bottom breaking plow which was made for the 9N,the plow,cultivator,disc all still have the ford aluminum tags on them. Except for winter I use that little tractor every other day,right now using it for landscaping in and around a pond.
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.
I got a love from old ford tractor since I started mechanic there at 16 tell 22 and it closed down Still buy and fix them but can’t keep them all wife said. 71 and still working every day but Sunday
Great collection of Ford tractors! But my favorite ford tractor of all time got to be the 1965 654 super4 county tractor, maybe because as a kid growing up in Puerto Rico, I used to see them at work on the sugar mills industries around the island. But beautiful collection nonetheless!👌😎👍
I was really bummed I did not make it this year, was going to bring my Fordson Major Diesel. All The Fordsons to my knowledge had Ford designed, cast, and machined diesels. Great video Squatch!
The engine in the Dexta was a Perkins designed engine with Ford cast into a lot of the castings They did the same with the Perkins V8 used in the D series trucks.
Great memories. I'm 54 the first Tractor I steered was a Farm all at about 6 our neighbor plowed a elderly neighbor woman's two Acer lot for a neighborhood vegitblble patch so she didn't pay to mow for fire safety. 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 😁
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!
We had a 1948 Ferguson tractor on our tree farm...Dad bought it used in 1952 (the year I was born) for $400. We used that tractor to plant trees...mostly pines...for Christmas trees. Dad said he thought he had planted over 2,000,000 trees in upstate New York & northern PA over the years. That tractor was just like the Ford 9N.
Cool video. My first tractor was a 1941 Ford 9N. I loved that old tractor but hated the front mount distributor though. If I had kept it, I would have converted it to an electronic ignition.
I like the Ford conversion to tractors. The V8 blocks must be a powerplant upgrade. I remember a well driller (drove strainers) using the axle from a Ford as the driving weight.
When you talking to my golden jubilee all I can think about is Queen Elizabeth's golden jubilee those golden jubilee Ford tractors came in existence one year after she ascended to the throne and she had a while to go before her golden jubilee but that's where those that term comes from the British monarchy but it's kind of nice at Ford adopted it too
I had a 8N with a Sherman overdrive. It had a low, standard, high range. My dad used to say it went so fast, the front end would get home five minutes ahead of the rear end! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
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.
Thanks for sharing this one really enjoyed the Ford Tractors I like the Dexta mines a 1959. That Cement mixer is quite common in Europe. Dont see many up here in Alberta Canada 🇨🇦 either.
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.
Fordson dexta was a great little gutsy tractor. The engine was a good lugger and reasonabley fast for its day and yes it was the Perkins or developed with Perkins. Verry similar to the mf 35.
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.
I once owned an 1952 Ford 8N but it was stolen off of my property down in Rockport Texas. The shame was the amount of work I put in to that tractor only to have is stolen. So I am thinking about doing another one. They are a lot of fun to work on and really don't cost all that much (as long as you do the work). Merry Christmas !
I love seeing all them old Ford tractors I restored a 1949 8N tractor 12 years ago still drive that tractor around in the neighborhood bought it from a guy who was going to haul it all for scrap gave him 500 bucks for it and pull it out of the barn brother told me I'll never get that thing running 10 months later had it running and driving
The engine in the Ford Dexta is a 3-152 Perkins (3 cylinder 152 cubic inch), Squatch, ENFO on the drawbar of the Power Major means English Ford!!)) FYI
It's called f 3 the block was cast by Ford and finished by Perkins. It's a little bit longer than the Perkins 3 cylinder that was in the Ferguson tractor
At one time there were so many good tractors, Ford, Oliver, Massey Harris, International, Allis Chalmers, John Deere, Case. It would be interesting to know what Deere did to thrive while the others struggled and ultimately failed.
Some beautiful old machines they look utterly brilliant! I don't really know the relation between the ford companies - I seem to remember that the blue fords have nothing to do with the ford motor co. But the old 8N's have the traditional ford oval logo so I suppose these were the agricultural branch of ford motor co. in the day?
My collection up till this spring contained a 61 super major,, enfo for English ford,, sold it to a fella in utah,, sends me pics regular of it working,,,,
keep all 90s ford rangers ALIVE!
This was time well spent, not a tractor person, but I do appreciate the effort put in to keep these tractors with us for a few more decdes yet.
Well worth the watch....

Marvellous to look at several of these Ford tractors which are not usually seen in England 🇬🇧🇮🇪.
Excellent cheers 🥂 😊
I had to laugh out loud with the cup holder! 😂😂
Mine is bolted to top of propane tank
Tin can with arts cut out for coffee cup
Harry Ferguson invented the 3-point hitch...
Love those ford's grew up with them in the60s @70s great memories got an old 601 myself
Thanks
I really love seeing old Ford tractors, I have a 1955 Ford 650. I really like the 600 series. 👍🚜
FANTASTIC! Thanks Squatch👍
I still bush hog my pasture & machine my dirt roads with a box blade using my 1940 9N. Works fine.
I'm sure that all of the Ford guys enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing
Sunday morning LAUGH OUT LOUD moment, “Even these suck up the John Deere’s.”
Thank you. I am in San Diego and so don't get to see lots of tractors in one place. I am refurbishing a Golden Jubilee and its my first tractor. Nothing but fun!
I dont gotta be a ford guy to appreciate these old beasts, wowza!
Sounds like you know your tractors for sure.😊
Some pretty neat tractor with a great turnout of 8N's
That was my 871 select o speed I redid this summer after watching a lot of your videos I got the bug to try my hand at fixing one up myself awesome to see it come full circle
Thank you for the editorial walk-around! It's amazing which brands suck up those green things! LoL 🤣😆
A nice assortment of Fords.
Glad folks keep the old iron working.
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.

My Dad told me that but I never seen one
Cool stuff 😊
Awesome to see the old Fords. My dad had a Golden Jubilee with a FEL, and really loved to work it.
Really nice on taking us down the line of Ford tractors
Being a Ford tractor guy I enjoyed your walk through.. alot of Golden Jubilee flathead conversions.. didn’t see my 55 - 600 anywhere, my father’s favorite once he felt that power steering..
Flat head Ford V-8 engines, hated where the distributor was located, but the engines were legendary for their time, thanx for the walk around.🙂
Nice walk round of the Ford line up 👌
Another great walk through!!! Thank you for sharing the Fords!!!
I like all kinds of tractors, but I have an affection for 8Ns as I learned to drive a tractor on one.
excellent video tour of the Ford tractors and trucks
Thanks for the tour.
🤗😀👍 .. to bad no yard/garden tractors 😳🤪 … ✌️🤙
The last one you showed had the less popular beer can weight on it. Its owner may be a decendant of a certain engine rebuilder . . .
Excellent walk through.😊
Wish I was there .
That ford that was multi directional I wonder if it went the same speed either direction I’m guessing yes very awesome show thanks for sharing buddy
I love those flat head conv
Yes they go the same speed both directions
My second wife’s father was head of sales for Ford tractor. He negotiated with Kubota to make small tractors with the Ford badge. He retired about the time they sold to New Holland
Very nice Tractors. The Dexta had a different engine then the ferguson it was a little longer Perkins finished it. The Dexta were called a F 3. I own a 1959 Dexta
The small rebadged ford tractors are shibaura, not kubota.
😊🎉@@Dextamartijn
Thanks for Sharing .
Nice job on the Ford tractor tour! I love your commenting and pointing out different features of the tractors.
Excellent walk around commentary. Thanks so much.
Thanks for showing the bug tractors, interesting gear reduction setup! Here in Australia they mostly use a truck rear diff and double transmissions.
YOU MISSED ONE THING ON THE 9 N JUST BEFORE THE 2 V-8 REDBELLY TRACTORS!!
IT HAD THE SHERMAN OVERDRIVE TRANSMISSION!
WAS A GREAT ADD ON FOR THOSE TRACTORS!
BOTH OUR 8 AND 9 N TRACTORS
HAD ONE AND WE ALSO HAD A FERGUSON 20 WITH A SHERMAN
OVER,DIRECT, AND UNDERDRIVE TRANSMISSION!
Thank You for sharing
Thank you! Great to see some familiar iron! Great fun!
Not into tractors but I had to watch this great collection and thanks for the posting and that flathead tractor was cool.
Very interesting walk around on the Ford tractors. I helped mix and pour concrete with one of those rear mount mixers. That was many years ago.
I appreciate you giving me a a tour I love Ford Tractors Trucks and Cars and tools and clothes and if I left out anything else Ford I love that too! Some of us can’t get out much especially with this inflation so I really enjoyed that that made me forget about my troubles for a few minutes and encouraged me to keep working on my 8Ns! Very good video 😀🇨🇦
A bit surprised by the lack of propane fueled Fords like my 841L.
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.
Thank you for a great go out rd coverage. I think Henry’ heart was in farming but the automobile came first. I love to see an old Fordson run.
Nice walk through. I grew up with a 971 and an 8n. I still have the 971 and I now have 2 8ns and a 2n and some ford implements to go with them. The ford select o speed was first true power shift on the market.
that was great.. thanks for the show and tell, really cool group of iron
Wooooo Ford Tractor! 🎉
Awesome!!

I really like the walkarounds. My dad framed with Fords we had 2 6000 selectospeeds a 7000 and an 8600
I have my dad and uncles 9N which they bought new in 46,it’s actually a 2N,I made a 3point blade for it,works perfect for landscaping,also have 3point harrows,cultivator,tandem disc,mower,1 bottom breaking plow which was made for the 9N,the plow,cultivator,disc all still have the ford aluminum tags on them.

Thank you for your time.
Good info. I have a 1957 681 but needs work.
Great collection of Ford tractors! But my favorite ford tractor of all time got to be the 1965 654 super4 county tractor, maybe because as a kid growing up in Puerto Rico, I used to see them at work on the sugar mills industries around the island. But beautiful collection nonetheless!👌😎👍

That is awesome for Ford fans Tobie and I am one of them
ENFO means English Ford. Stamped on all parts made in the UK
Pre 1965 might I add
After that date every Ford part was stamped FOMOCO
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.

Excellent tour! I'd love to see how that cement mixer tilts. Three men could pour a concrete driveway. No problem.
I wonder if the EnFo was supposed to mean like "English Ford" or something. The Fordsons were made in England I do know that
Yeah the ENFO means English Ford.
Exactly what I was going to suggest... you beat me to it 🤣
When you talking to my golden jubilee all I can think about is Queen Elizabeth's golden jubilee those golden jubilee Ford tractors came in existence one year after she ascended to the throne and she had a while to go before her golden jubilee but that's where those that term comes from the British monarchy but it's kind of nice at Ford adopted it too

That offset Ford reminds me of the Farmall Cub.
And you just passed by the LGT145. Had one for a few years ,neat little tractor.
I have a lt75 my dad bought the first year they had lawn and garden stuff also a dexta. Love them all a lot of memories in that walk thru. Thanks!!
Thanks for sharing this one really enjoyed the Ford Tractors I like the Dexta mines a 1959. That Cement mixer is quite common in Europe. Dont see many up here in Alberta Canada 🇨🇦 either.
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.
Fordson dexta was a great little gutsy tractor. The engine was a good lugger and reasonabley fast for its day and yes it was the Perkins or developed with Perkins. Verry similar to the mf 35.
Good video
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.
I once owned an 1952 Ford 8N but it was stolen off of my property down in Rockport Texas. The shame was the amount of work I put in to that tractor only to have is stolen.

Thanks for the video Squatch! Ford definitely made some nice machines in their time. Cheers
I love seeing all them old Ford tractors I restored a 1949 8N tractor 12 years ago still drive that tractor around in the neighborhood bought it from a guy who was going to haul it all for scrap gave him 500 bucks for it and pull it out of the barn brother told me I'll never get that thing running 10 months later had it running and driving
My tractor would have been there if the oil pump did not go out in it when I was raking hay. It is a 1964 Ford 2000 air force tug.
The engine in the Ford Dexta is a 3-152 Perkins (3 cylinder 152 cubic inch), Squatch, ENFO on the drawbar of the Power Major means English Ford!!)) FYI
It's called f 3 the block was cast by Ford and finished by Perkins. It's a little bit longer than the Perkins 3 cylinder that was in the Ferguson tractor
Great review, esp the "Bug" tractors. Star of the show? Has to be the single-row corn picker, thanks (1952 Ferguson TE20 owner)
The navy could have had that gray Ford I know they had yellow tractors for moving equipment around
Nice fords
The 2 Golden Jubilee V8 swaps also have sequential engine tags.
At one time there were so many good tractors, Ford, Oliver, Massey Harris, International, Allis Chalmers, John Deere, Case. It would be interesting to know what Deere did to thrive while the others struggled and ultimately failed.
John deeres aren't as good as they used to be!
Los demás no fracasaron se diversificaron a cosas 😅más rentables o diferentes Mientras john Deere solo hacia máquinas agrícolas
I really want an offset ford. It’s like a Farmall A
I have a Jubilee with a factory installed Pippin Backhoe, a Wagner loader and a Sherman over, under and direct drive transmission.
Some beautiful old machines they look utterly brilliant! I don't really know the relation between the ford companies - I seem to remember that the blue fords have nothing to do with the ford motor co.
