Anybody here looking for a old tractor

Selling some equipment inherited from my father who passed away last year and to make room for new projects (considering acquiring a Unimog). Although I have placed ads in several antique tractor websites I have yet to receive a serious response.

I have a 1941 Ford 9N recently overhauled with scraper blade and boom lift

Also a 1960s Sears Allstate utility trailer

Located in Bucks County, PA 19067

thats the most "garden variety" of all the old tractors still out there, but it looks in good shape, They are almost always red.

Wow. Super clean tractor. My next door neighbor has one which is solid rust color, never restored, but still runs. Hope you find a good buyer!

The 9N (1941) and 2N (late 1941-1946) were originally all gray. 8N (production starting in 1947) was the first production with gray sheet metal and red frame/engine.

Man that is in fantastic shape! I'm surprised you didn't get any bites on the tractor boards, perhaps price was too high? They might be "garden variety" but that tractor is in great shape and IMO should sell itself.

It's been posted for about 6 weeks so I will give it time. The tractor has been overhauled, rebuilt engine, generator, and starter with low hours. Tires and battery are new. All parts are correct and it is running the original 6-volt electrics. Compared to what I see offered I feel I have a very reasonable price.

Agreed it is garden variety which means parts are easily available at good prices. Thanks for the kind comments.

$3,500 is for tractor and attachments.

Trailer is separate, waiting for new title to arrive since the original cannot be located.

It looks just like my Grandfather's tractor which I rode many an hour leaning on the fender while he worked it.....back in the early fifties.
