  • In this video we show the rebuilding and restoration of a 1940 Fordson N. In the first video we showed the tractor being stripped to see what parts could be used for the project and in this video we show the tractor being put back together and restored to its former glory.
    From rebuilding the gearbox, building the engine, shot blasting and spraying the tractor, each step in the process is shown in detail.
    At the end of the video the finished tractor pulls a vintage binder and harvests a field of oats.

    Quality job, gents. I’m currently rebuilding a 1950 Ford 8n in the USA, and enjoyed getting to see this restoration.

    I can remember seeing one of these tractors sold for 30 shillings £1.50 in today’s money in a farm sale in 1960.
    How times change. Lovely job with the restoration guys. Bit of a beast to drive having both clutch and brake on one pedal gave you a strong right leg, and a broken wrist if the mag ignition was slightly off.

      Have to admit it nice renting new machines with computer control, but maintaining that stuff is a headache

    A superb restoration of certainly my favourite tractor, so very well done by all, the narration was superb and the detailed video very well shown. Fantastic end product and excellent tutorial for anyone even attempting restoring tractors, this is how it is done!

    It's great to see such a dedicated team of mechanics so hard at work, but this video (and part one of it) contain a great mystery. When the old rusty tractor is recovered from its place of rust it is shown with an authentic Fordson Model N engine. However, when we get to the stage where it is all put back together and started up for the first time the engine has changed to a Fordson Model E27N engine. No mention of this engine swop is made is the otherwise entertaining commentary. How come?

    Absolutely a mint job.
    I am looking for a green wide wing and Ransomes plough, just like the one my Grandfather had.
    Well done.

    Cracking Job Lads. Lovely restoration. Spent hours working on these, plus Allis U's & B's also the IH farmal series, nearly 60yrs ago. Your workshop looks the same as ours did!. A saner world in those days! All the best from the Welsh border👍

      Agreed! If the narrator had used loathsome metric units, that would have been the ultimate betrayal! The imperial measurement system has so much more colour than the painfully boring and repetitious metric system: 10 x 10 x 10 aargh! :-( I was also surprised to hear that tractors were still being built in the U.K. in 1941; I'd have reckoned that all such production would have been devoted to the war effort by then.
