Early in the evening, I mowed some land that we own behind the house with my 1949 Ford 8N tractor – which I ALSO highly recommend! I purchased this tractor for sale on the side of the road down here in Maryland in the Spring of 2005 for $1,600, changed the oil, bolted on a 5-foot bush hog, and have been using it to mow this 3-acre field for 11 Summers without missing a beat! You can’t even buy a decent ride-mower for that, and this is one hell of a useful machine!.
