Vintage Tractor Restoration Project -- Restoring a 1940 Fordson N Tractor -- (Part Two)

[@annalorree]

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

[@trevordeane8834]

Having done renovation work like this myself, I was please to see the way you explained each process so that people who have not done this work could understand the work involved , in a manner that was easy to follow. You did a first class engineered renovation and I give you my compliments on your workmanship. Well done lads.

Best restoration of the fordson, the men can be proud of their work.

[@v8man350]

Fantastic job lads great to see old machinery getting another chance, well done to all involved 👍🏻

[@arthurbaldwin1804]

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

[@martinhambleton5076]

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

[@GN0MEz]

So amazing to see these old machines brought back to life, and work on a farm again. Thanks for sharing

[@johnkinnane547]

G'day and greetings from Tasmania Australia, that was very interesting watching the restoration of this tractor and she turned out terrific and a real credit to everyone involved in its restoration, thank you for filming and doing the voice over I have subscribed and look forward to the next instalments, kind regards John Kinnane

[@derekstocker6661]

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!

[@fitzg002]

Have to agree great video and narration was perfect!

[@gilbertdavies]

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👍

[@upthereds4939]

2 Great videos . Fantastic restoration , no shortcuts taken!. 👍🏻

[@geordie1032]

Fantastic job on rebuilding the Fordson. Great video. Thank you.

[@oliveringram3056]

Respect.

[@mehmetct9245]

Excellent footage.

[@danmagill7595]

really enjoyed this video ,, here in my area they were a common sight hauling a thresher with a Jones bailer on a drawbar behind ,,, Dan from Randalstown ,,,,,,,,,

[@pottersmiles7238]

That's class

[@LeverGating]

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?

[@classyfarming1675]

Another great video. 👍

[@VideosofIrishFarmingLife]

Glad you enjoyed it.. Seen your Uncle this time around.. He done a great job on the tractor..

[@charleshart6992]

Excellent! Fantastic result!

[@DanaKotze]

Great video

[@Liamautomechanic]

Good vid.

[@olivermulliss7114]

do you have any more in-depth filming of the reassembly, I'm putting one back together at the moment, i got it all in bits so any extra help would be great. thanks.

[@neriseeling9521]

Muy buen video

[@sammichael2159]

That tractor new in today’s money according to what he read out of the book would be about 13,000 pound

[@plattforminternationalismu1690]

Ihr seid meister, ich bewundere euch! Dieses alte gerät zu reparieren...? Jede schraube ein abenteuer, geht sie auf, reißt die schraube ab..? Das sind keine hängenden ventile... Vielen dank für das video! Lg.ff.

[@patrickkelly1055]

Does anybody know what workshop manual the lads used for doing the fordson

[@plattforminternationalismu1690]

Ihr habt sogar noch das reparaturenbuch!....lg.ff.

[@LanceblissfullyWalks]

I love that he said 160 pounds being from the USA in all.

[@grazzer1673]

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.

[@cathalhurley7945]

whent from one of the worst to the best out there

[@andrewnaughton2645]

Would anyone know the contact for the steering wheel rim I’m trying to get one for my e27n , cheers

[@patriciaryan3374]

I have a international 946 1965
