Morning guys.

Finally, I slept in....
6am.....


John, if you want a ford tractor, try and avoid the 9n.
The 8n, 2n, and NAA were all far better.

The 9n had the independant brakes on opposite sides, so its impossible to press both brakes and the clutch at the same time...


Its that reason you can often find a totaled 9n at the bottom of a hillside road.
People try and do an emergency stop, and end up turning sharply, and drive right off the road.


The 12v starter system is preferable.
If you can, try and find one with a sherman transmision.
There was the under drive, over drive, and over under.
They were an extra gear box that could be switched between 2:1 & 1:1
With the under drive you could pull extra hard.
The over drive can get you going close to 30mph.

They also made kits to put other ford engines on.
You could install either a 300 I6, or a 302 V8.

V8 + overdrive = very fun death trap..... LOL
 
like the others have said, maybe a p40 or a p50, early models due to no chainbrake. Later p41 and p51 had brakes. Find the tag and it will tell the story.

p50. Just figured between that one and an 064, they should lock in the CAD pretty good.
Gotta love displacement...............
 
I got some new hot sauce for my eggs this morning.

Its called "ring of fire ghost pepper sauce"
Its some damn hot stuff.
Just touching a toothpick to it and trying that was stronger than using tabasco as mouth wash..... LOL

Nice tasting stuff.
A mix of the worlds hottest pepper (4x as hot as habenero) grilled fresh tomatos, smoked garlic, and spices.
Might try some with spam!
 
Well found the breakers I need for the gen set.. $2.50 / ea from Grainger and they have them in stock. Now to go home the LONG way to get them.. it'll be worth it to get this damn thing gone! Then on to Mr. Wheelhorse. I really want to get this stuff gone so I can finish up a few saws... then get back into some tractors.
 
What's your choice of beans?

I'm a fan of bushes best....
1 can of original, and a few hot dogs, or 1/3 a can of spam, and that's about my favourite lunch.
 
I have to go back to my old hot sauce for breakfast.....
This new stuff gives me garlic breath that could kill a rhino....... LOL

You Know it man. Grinning from ear to ear here. Once the 350 and 45 are done the the 064 and P50 are next. Shops gonna smell like ice cream and what kind of smell do Pioneers have?

I'll have quite the diverse lineup. Like my own little chainsaw Ellis Island.

You still need a PM/canadien, a Mac, and a brick homelite, and an an upright homelite.
Then you will have the range covered.

I like macs... :rock:
