The Family Ford 9N
This was my wife’s grandfather’s Ford 9N, he got it new in 1943. When he passed away it sat in the barn for 30 years. My wife’s dad wanted it so bad, and when his mom passed away she left it to him.
I took it and restored it for him and he was so happy with it. He would just go out and set on it for hours. Now he’s gone and my wife has it. It will go to our son next and I hope it will stay in our family. The Family Ford 9N.

Ford 9N Clearing the Snow
Thanks for featuring older tractors working hard. Thought you might be interested in seeing my hard-working 1941 Ford 9N with loader and back blade clearing a lot of snow up here in Northwestern Ontario, Canada.
This tractor has been doing this work on our rural property for over 30 years.

Case L Tractor
We are buyers and sellers of vintage tractors, based in the UK.
This Case L tractor was purchased from a fellow collector in Devon recently. It is a striking tractor with a great presence and a powerful sound to match!
The serial plate of our tractor begins with 440 which allows us to date this as a 1940 build, which would have been one of the last built before the Case LA took its place on the production line.
Very little is known about the life of this tractor but it has clearly been sympathetically restored at some point.
Kindest regards
