Made it to historic farm days show after the rains. Saw Dwight
Enstrom with a couple fords he brought. Lucky enough to see
9n sn 16 the oldest known in existence. Mr Enstrom also
brought an original 51 8n clock read 130 hours. Quite a story
on it. There were a couple other 1939 9n's also. Quite a treat
 
We'll I'd say in his later 70's. I've been into ford tractors 25 yrs and have read of him and his collections in books we have.
 
Mr. Enstrom is I believe 82. He spends a week in January and February here in Florida every year with my family. Stays with my parents for those two weeks and we always try to celebrate his birthday in January. Our families have become quite close over the last 10 years. Our 9n # 849 came from his collection. He is one on the finest persons I have ever had the privilege of knowing and has been a huge help to me with my Ford tractors. I have called him many times looking for some part that I didn't have and it would show up on my doorstep a few days later. If you ever get the chance to see his collection it is well worth the trip.
 
Floldford thanks for a little more info on Mr Enstrom. Hanging around the ford building yesterday was interesting and the number of ford people checking every little detail on these old tractors was impressive. Mr Fossom 's name came up also. I told my wife I'm seeing people and ford tractors I've been reading about for years.
