      Henry Ford AND Harry Ferguson together built tractors (i'm not sure what years). it is odd that Henry would name the tractor Fordson because Ford Motor Co. was HIS company. looks like you have a what will be a good tractor, this is an example of one that has sat for a few to many years so get it running. what i have noticed over the years buying tractors and helping others to buy is any tractor that the LIGHTS work most of the time has been better cared for, i have walked away from tractors when the lights don't work (the owner not able or just lazy to maintain the tractor and keep the lights working).

If you're a vintage British Sportscar Enthusiast, the exhaust note may sound vaguely familiar when you get it running. Triumph TR3 used the same engine.

      @@berryreading4809 9N's(39-42) and 2N's(42-47) were dark grey, just like the Ferguson's. Some stories indicate that Ford initially bought up all the surplus battleship grey that predated the US Navy standardized paint colours, and the tractors shared the paint colour inconsistencies that the battleships did. Considering the 9n's were US market tractors, worries about the Luftwaffe definitely do not apply.
      Story goes that when Ferguson and Ford parted ways Harry took the paint codes with him. Hence why the 8N is a lighter grey with red castings.

      The CNC has nothing to do with it. Just take that carb apart and clean it, it probably has just a single gasket you can make if you ruin it disassembling it. I really like working on these old tractors because a clean carb, a sealed tank, new lines and all the screens /filters cleared and it should be pretty reliable with what really isn't that much work. And as a bonus you don't even have to crawl around on the ground to mess with the fuel tank like you would for a car.
      And I don't know who needs to hear this but I say it all the time. These days you want a plastic fuel tank ideally, if you can't get one, seal your steak tanks. The OEM coatings are gone or we're not designed for the blends of fuels that we have today and they will just ride away and put dirty fuel into your screens/filters. The supplies to everything that uses steel tank, be it a piece of equipment or a car.

      If we had no purpose for performing heart surgery for 60 years and then decided we needed to do it, do you think the the equipment and knowledge would just be immediately re-instated? No, new equipment would have to be built, and we'd obviously build it from scratch because technology has changed a fair bit in 60 years right? No point building 60 year old tech in 2022. But then we also haven't trained any surgeons to be heart surgeons either, so we'd have to re-learn how to do heart surgery from 60 year old books and papers because the only remaining heart surgeons are in their 90's.
      Thinking that we can instantly recreate lost wisdom is ridiculous.

As another gentleman mentioned, rollbar is a good idea. Never flipped ours, but I have made it hop a couple of times. If it doesn't already have one, a PTO extension might be a good investment.

    Those carburators are really "easy" to "rebuild". That one didn't look too bad, I'm sure it is useable. I've had really good luck soaking them in simple green in an old crockpot on low heat.
    The gaskets are available and if needed can be made by yourself.
    one issues with that style original carb is the face that connects to the manifold has a tendency to warp. Nothing that a file and or sand paper on a flat surface (tablet saw, kitchen counter, ext) can't fix.

    If you got that tractor to brush hog with -- make sure to get an 'over running clutch' for the PTO (Tractor Supply carries them) -- without it the spinning hog will push you through a fence or into a ditch you don't want to wrangle in while you frantically depress clutch and brake pedals. The Ferguson mid 1950s TO35 and newer had two-stage 'live PTO' that the Fords didn't get until the mid 1960s. There's a good story about the Ferguson 3-point hitch 'arrangement' with Ford you need to look up.

He lived, just cracked a couple ribs and bruised him up. About 30 years later he flipped a Kubota from which he had thoughtfully removed the rollbar. That earned him about 6 weeks in the hospital with a bunch of broken bones, a punctured lung and a slice across his face that gave him quite a menacing scar.

    The reason the exhaust manifold is so close to the intake is because they were designed to run on TVO (tractor vaporising oil) after starting & warming up on petrol.

Don't want to chance any arcy sparky especially since its right near the fuel filler cap. Also note the clearance between the exhaust manifold and the fuel tank is but a mere inch. Tank can get hot during hard running and cause even more off gassing. Looks like she just left the paint shop which is nice, mine just left the oil bath.

    There was once a man who had an obsession for tractors. His walls were covered in posters of tractors, his mantelpiece covered in tractor plates. Tractors tractors tractors all over his house. His wife, naturally, because she was sane, hated it. So she gave him the ultimatum - the tractors or her. After much thought he decided to get rid of the tractors and promptly took all of the memorabilia to the dump. He returned home to find his house on fire and that the smoke was preventing his wife and kids from finding the door. So the man took a massive deep breath. He sucked in with all his might. The smoke sucked out of the house and his family escaped. Later on, a firefighter asked him how he did it. "That's easy," he replied. "I'm an extractor fan".
