I have 8N (1950). Question-What, and how many, wrenches did Ford give to new tractor owners at time of purchase?How do you distinguish them from "regular" Ford tools given to new CAR owners? Do they have special markings?

Harry's right, and he's one of the experts in the field. 7 tools were issued: Plow Wrench, Screwdriver, Sparkplug Wrench, Adjustable (monkey) Wrench, Pliers, and two other smaller open end wrenches.

Identifying the right tool isn't too hard now, thanks to Messrs. Kidd and Baumann. FINDING them isn't quite so easy. Get ready to haunt lots of swap meets if you looking for them. If it's something you just gotta have, contact Marvin Baumann direct, there's a real good chance he'll have what you need.

Lucas,
Truth is that the number of tools varied from year to year, with fewer being "given away" during the later years (after 1947). It's commonly accepted that 7 tools belong in the N-Toolkit, because, if not "given away" a particluar year, they were still "options". Only the "plow wrench" is unique to the N Series Tractor. All other tools were also "car tools".

You can see a correct tool kit on John Smith's "Accessories and Memorabilia" page at www.8NFord.com. You can also get another photo and additional information from Marv Baumann's article at www.geocities.com/ntoolkit (a "work" in progress) i.e - the SITE, not Marv's article).

Any other specific questions, "post 'em" - I love to talk "N" tools.

Harry
