MnNC · Sep 19, 2012

ok, friends of the N
thinking it may be time to sell
what ya think a good askin" price for:
2N...12 volt...starts/runs good
good tires...new wiring...new starter
new plugs...new coil...hydraulics work
i"m in eastern NC if that matters.
sorta hate to part with the ol" N but it
just sits and used very little.
thanks for all replies.

theres a big difference in price in different areas, but here one in the condition you describe,$1500 to maybe $2000 for a pretty one wouldnt be unreasonable without the brushhog.that wouldnt bring a whole lot here maybe $200. folks here have some aversion to the 2n for some reason,they will go for a 9n or a 8n but mention 2n and youve lost a lot of them. dont know why that is,maybe something to do with the war models?

appreciate yur reply.

You might get $1,000 to $1,500 in my area Central/Southeastern Ohio), maybe more if it's pretty (for the gentleman farmer crowd). The runners I've seen at auction lately (though not pretty) have gone for $600 - $800 without a mower. I agree that calling it what it is (2N) will confuse the uninformed. I know when I was looking 20 some years ago I only knew 9N or 8N (and thought the 9N was better/newer because it was the higher model number!).

just sold one yesterday sound about like yours. No bush hog. I was asking $1500 got $1400. Bush hog here would be around $250 in fair condition. South Mississippi.

$1650 ish...if you have the original generator to go with it...$150 less if a guy has to go get one to replace the nast alternator hangin off the side of it.

OL I got an 8N last with an alternator hangin off the side and I wouldn't look for a genny with you money....that Alt makes it worth a little more to me.

As far as the original question, check your locak CL and see what others are asking.

MnNC........how do you tell the difference between an ALUMINUM colored alternator and a 6V-genny? Most 6V-gennys look BLACK and LONG like the starter motor on the other side of the engine. Simple, eh? ........respectfully, the amazed Dell

thanks Mr Dell
mine has an alternator

btw...when these old Ns were built, which came first ? alt or genny ?

Any Ford tractor built prior to 1976 had a generator from the factory so if you see an alternator on one it has been converted.
