Ford 8N tractor - how much is it worth?

The value of a Ford 8N tractor can vary widely depending on location, condition, and other factors. Currently, typical prices around us range from from around $1,900 to $3,500 for a running tractor in decent to nice condition. Factors like condition, restoration, and rarity can influence the price. Restored examples, like the 1952 Ford 8N sold by RM Sotheby's for $29,120, can fetch significantly higher prices. #Ford8n #classictractor #fordtractor #purplecollarlife Condition: A tractor in excellent, original condition will be worth more than one with significant wear and tear or rust. Restoration: Restored tractors, especially those with high-quality restoration work, can command a premium. Rarity: Certain models or years may be rarer and thus more valuable. Market Demand: Local and regional demand can also influence prices. Attachments and Accessories: Tractors with desirable attachments or original accessories can increase their value. Price Range Examples: Machinery Pete lists Ford 8N tractors ranging from $1,900 to $4,250. Fastline shows listings between $1,900 and $2,450. Machinio notes that 1947-1950 Ford 8Ns typically range from $2,100 to $2,500, while 1951-1952 models can fetch $2,500 to $2,995. It seems like the $3500 $5000 range is a sweet spot for a nice looking and good running Ford 8N tractor like ours. Nicer restorations are currently in the $5000 to $7500 range. Things that add to the value are new tires, rims, and tubes, a quality paint job, properly working hydraulics, good clutch, rebuilt engine, working lights, and history of work completed. 7 tips if shopping for a used Ford 8N tractor: https://youtu.be/uKO_2ThkQfs?si=TZHUvEYMbKTfHYfi Our Ford 8N tractor video playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJy7cj0ut2cBWTStoVA1G_lfQ8hnhUtLu ------------------------------------ Please subscribe to our channel here: https://www.youtube.com/c/PurpleCollarLife?sub_confirmation=1 Our Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/Purple-Collar-Life-107918060952197 Our Instagram https://www.instagram.com/purplecollarlife/?hl=en Our website: www.purplecollarlife.com Partners and Sponsors Toro: https://www.toro.com/en Artillian: https://www.artillian.com/ Curtis Industries: https://curtisindustries.net/ Clovis lubricants: http://www.clovislubricants.shopamsoil.com/ OUR EQUIPMENT LIST Takeuchi TB235-2 mini excavator John Deere 2210 Compact Tractor Ford 641 Workmaster tractor Ford 8N tractor Toro TIMECUTTER Toro TIMECUTTER MAX 54 with MyRide 77503 Toro PowerMax Split-Fire 2265 two-way log splitter Split-Fire 3465 two-way log splitter Polaris Ranger Yamaha XT250 dual sport motorcycle Stihl chainsaws MS271 MS290 MS261C Super Duty Ford F-350 Godzilla 7.3 CCLB 2011 Sun Tracker 21 Party Barge with Mercury 60 EFI Bigfoot 1995 Ford Bronco XLT 351 w/Bassani stainless exhaust We live in Northwestern PA and have around 70 Acres of Land, in the middle of family homestead land from more than 4 generations back.

5 tips to prepare your classic truck for summer use - 1995 Ford Bronco

Before driving down the road in your collectible classic car, truck, or Ford Bronco, there are a few things you want to check. This video explains 5 tips to preparing your classic truck for summer use after winter storage.

Check the battery. I keep my battery on a trickle charger all winter. If you don’t I recommend letting the battery charge to full level for 24-48 hours before starting the vehicle. 2. Thoroughly inspect the car. - even if it’s been in climate control and under cover. My Bronco has an inspection date due in March. Here in Pennsylvania, our vehicles require an annual inspection. That means that my vehicle gets a thorough inspection before I’m out driving around in the summer. If you don’t have annual state inspections, it’s a good idea to fully check your brake system, suspension, fuel system, lights, horn, wipers - before that first drive. 3. Check all fluid levels - fresh oil change Fluids can degrade or evaporate over time, so it’s vital to check all fluid replacement levels before driving your classic car. Engine oil should be replaced every year even if you’re only putting 1000 miles on the vehicle each summer. You should check the engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, transmission fluid, and fuel. 4. Examine your tires. Tires can lose air pressure over time and develop flat spots from sitting if they’ve been in storage. Inspect all tires for any signs of damage or dry rot. Check air pressure. Check the date on the side of the tire to see how old the tires are. Even tires that have nearly new tread depth can become too old to use if they are beyond 6-10 years old. 5. Follow up with a good wash and wax. Inspect the outside and interior as washing and detailing.

Which log splitter would I buy today? What features do the best splitters have?

If I were shopping for a new log splitter -which one would I buy today? In this video, I discuss why my Split-Fire 2265 and Split-Fire 3465 are configured with the options I selected, and the benefits of each. I also talk about when I choose to use each and why. These log splitters sit somewhere between home owner grade and commercial grade - with advantages like a log lift, available Honda GX200 engine, highway axles/wheels/tires, higher bed height, 2-way splitting, excellent engineering, and outstanding durability. #logsplitter #firewood #woodsplitter #purplecollarlife #bestvalue Split-Fire website: https://split-fire.com/us/-/log-splitters-us/ 5 reasons why the Split-Fire 2265 is the best: https://youtu.be/iFKIUvQSzTw Faster than advertised - Split-Fire 2265: https://youtu.be/s8_LqlXZ4Xs Split-Fire 3465 NEW! - https://youtu.be/52fygXP-mXI Log splitter race: https://youtu.be/WOCHVy1WEwo Logsplitter shopping: https://youtu.be/6rl9lgHuV7Q Split-Fire playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJy7cj0ut2cCSKfPN0NxATQSRHe6JjZ1P ------------------------------------ Please subscribe to our channel here: https://www.youtube.com/c/PurpleCollarLife?sub_confirmation=1 Our Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/Purple-Collar-Life-107918060952197 Our Instagram https://www.instagram.com/purplecollarlife/?hl=en Our website: www.purplecollarlife.com Partners and Sponsors Toro: https://www.toro.com/en Artillian: https://www.artillian.com/ Curtis Industries: https://curtisindustries.net/ Clovis lubricants: http://www.clovislubricants.shopamsoil.com/ OUR EQUIPMENT LIST Takeuchi TB235-2 mini excavator John Deere 2210 Compact Tractor Ford 641 Workmaster tractor Ford 8N tractor Toro TIMECUTTER Toro TIMECUTTER MAX 54 with MyRide 77503 Toro PowerMax Split-Fire 2265 two-way log splitter Split-Fire 3465 two-way log splitter Polaris Ranger Yamaha XT250 dual sport motorcycle Stihl chainsaws MS271 MS290 MS261C Super Duty Ford F-350 Godzilla 7.3 CCLB 2011 Sun Tracker 21 Party Barge with Mercury 60 EFI Bigfoot 1995 Ford Bronco XLT 351 w/Bassani stainless exhaust We live in Northwestern PA and have around 70 Acres of Land, in the middle of family homestead land from more than 4 generations back.

Compact tractor yearly maintenance - oil and filters changed John Deere 2210 2305

Our John Deere 2210 sub compact tractor SCUT - similar to a 2305, about the same capability as today's 1025R, has been stalling out. I'll explain why.

2009 Ford Expedition with 175,000 miles! 5.4 Tritan V8.

Modern Cars Are Crushing The 200k Mile Barrier. 200,000 is the new 100,000. Vehicle life expectancy has changed. Why are we keeping cars longer? High mileage vehicles are now reaching 200,000 and 300,000 miles - sometimes more. Automobiles are more expensive, and people are keeping vehicles longer and driving them with more miles than any time in history. In this video, we talk about the average annual miles put on a car today vs in the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s - as well as the lifespan of engines and transmissions in 1970 and 1980 compared to vehicles of today. Our 2009 Ford Expedition just passed 175,000 miles on the 5.4 Tritan engine. I did an oil change and will send the oil sample to Blackstone for analysis of the Amsoil High Mileage motor oil that we ran in this Ford engine for the past 10,000 miles. Cars are reaching higher mileage because of better engineering, better quality oils/lubricants, better maintenance and because owners are putting more miles on per year, and owning cars longer. Car prices keep rising - and many people can't afford to replace their new car every few years. 200,000 miles today is the equivalent of 100,000 miles in the 1980s. #highmileage #automobile #carlife #purplecollarlife ----------------------------------- Please subscribe to our channel here: https://www.youtube.com/c/PurpleCollarLife?sub_confirmation=1 Our Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/Purple-Collar-Life-107918060952197 Our Instagram https://www.instagram.com/purplecollarlife/?hl=en Our website: www.purplecollarlife.com Partners and Sponsors Toro: https://www.toro.com/en Artillian: https://www.artillian.com/ Curtis Industries: https://curtisindustries.net/ Clovis lubricants: http://www.clovislubricants.shopamsoil.com/ OUR EQUIPMENT LIST Takeuchi TB235-2 mini excavator John Deere 2210 Compact Tractor Ford 641 Workmaster tractor Ford 8N tractor Toro TIMECUTTER Toro TIMECUTTER MAX 54 with MyRide 77503 Toro PowerMax Split-Fire 2265 two-way log splitter Split-Fire 3465 two-way log splitter Polaris Ranger Yamaha XT250 dual sport motorcycle Stihl chainsaws MS271 MS290 MS261C Super Duty Ford F-350 Godzilla 7.3 CCLB 2011 Sun Tracker 21 Party Barge with Mercury 60 EFI Bigfoot 1995 Ford Bronco XLT 351 w/Bassani stainless exhaust We live in Northwestern PA and have around 70 Acres of Land, in the middle of family homestead land from more than 4 generations back.

Toro Engine Maintenance Kit for TIMECUTTER and Titan 20294

Why put it off? Now is the perfect time to complete the Spring maintenance on your zero turn BEFORE it's time to start mowing every week. In this video, I show how to replace the air filter, replace the spark plugs, and replace the fuel filter on our Toro TIMECUTTER with the 24.5 HP Toro Commercial engine. This maintenance was completed using Toro Engine Maintenance kit 20294 which includes all these OEM Toro parts for the machine, in addition to fuel additive and synthetic motor oil 10W-30 and an oil filter. #toropartner #zeroturn #timecutter #lawnmowermaintenanceweek Toro Maintenance kit on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4iF9P2j Jump N Carry JNC660 jump starter: https://amzn.to/3QI03Ae CRAFTSMAN 13/16" Spark Plug Socket, 3/8-Inch Drive (CMMT43325): https://amzn.to/3Dgi71g Battery Tender Junior 12V, 750mA Charger and Maintainer: Automatic 12V Powersports Battery Charger for Motorcycle, ATVs, and More - 021-0123 - https://amzn.to/4119lOk Schumacher SP1296 Fully Automatic Battery Charger and Maintainer – 2 Amp, 6V/12V - For Car, Boat, and Power Sport Batteries - https://amzn.to/498gv5u ----------------------------------- Please subscribe to our channel here: https://www.youtube.com/c/PurpleCollarLife?sub_confirmation=1 Our Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/Purple-Collar-Life-107918060952197 Our Instagram https://www.instagram.com/purplecollarlife/?hl=en Our website: www.purplecollarlife.com Partners and Sponsors Toro: https://www.toro.com/en Artillian: https://www.artillian.com/ Curtis Industries: https://curtisindustries.net/ Clovis lubricants: http://www.clovislubricants.shopamsoil.com/ OUR EQUIPMENT LIST Takeuchi TB235-2 mini excavator John Deere 2210 Compact Tractor Ford 641 Workmaster tractor Ford 8N tractor Toro TIMECUTTER Toro TIMECUTTER MAX 54 with MyRide 77503 Toro PowerMax Split-Fire 2265 two-way log splitter Split-Fire 3465 two-way log splitter Polaris Ranger Yamaha XT250 dual sport motorcycle Stihl chainsaws MS271 MS290 MS261C Super Duty Ford F-350 Godzilla 7.3 CCLB 2011 Sun Tracker 21 Party Barge with Mercury 60 EFI Bigfoot 1995 Ford Bronco XLT 351 w/Bassani stainless exhaust We live in Northwestern PA and have around 70 Acres of Land, in the middle of family homestead land from more than 4 generations back.
