Interested to learn more about these implements

When I was given my beloved 8n I was also given several implements. I am familiar with the rear scoop and blade but would love to learn more about these two plows.

Edit: trying to upload pictures

The first Two pictures look like a Dearborn Prior Model Plow and the last picture looks like some sort of Middlebuster Plow.

It's a dearborn plow that someone dropped (cut off) the rear beam and bottom. It looks like they brought the tailwheel forward and put it on the front bottom. Probably was too much plow for a small tractor. It should still work good behind your N.
The second item looks like we're only seeing half of it. I would guess it's a stiff shank cultivator of some sort. It would do a good job of tilling up a garden just by itself.
They are still good, useable tools.

I'll get some more pictures when I pick those up. I only had room for the blade and scoop.

I was hoping they would still be useable. I would love to have a larger garden than I do now.

If yall have any other info or links on history of these items or how to use them it would be greatly appreciated.

For reasons that would take a whole page of typing to explain I can not post a direct link to the little N site.
But if you type this url into your browser, Ed Gooding has a fantastic collection of manuals over there. Click on manuals and then plows. Look for the Ferguson plow manual. It will show you how to set up your plow to work correctly.

when you get there ask them if they have the other 1/2 of your plow its incomplete

There's some other assorted items lying around. I have free range to rummage, I just need to know what to look for.

What is the model number on the Dearborn Tag on the plow? If it says 10-8, then it is supposed to be a 12" 2-bottomplow; if it has 10-1, then it supposed to be a 14" 2-bottom plow. Model 10-10 was a 10" plow but there's not many around. The last picture appears to be a Ferguson-Sherman Middlebuster. It could be a Dearborn too but I think I see remnants of faded 9N grey paint and no 8N Vermillion Red. Again, look close at the ID tag and see what make and model number is on it. As Ultradog said, go to the 'other' Ford N-Series tractor web site and get most of those old manuals for free download.
