I would not take a 9N,2N,or 8N as a gift if I had to keep it and use it. They beat a team of horses and would out work a plain drawbar tractor when plowing. On just about anything else they are not that user friendly. They fell out of favor when tractor design passed them by.
If I was trading the IH300 for a Ford I would go up to a 600 or 601 series. You can have them witha five speed and two stage clutch. This makes them a much better tractor to use.
I would never use a non live PTO tractor on anything that requires movement while using the PTO. The live power and full independent PTO where designed to make the tractors much more user friendly an safer too. It just like I am not going out and by a Ford Model T to drive on a freeway. Better technology has replaced them.
Also I would think a IH 300 and a Ford 2N in the same shape would not have near the same value. The IH 300 should be worth more. At least around here they are.
