: There are a number that pull here in Va., but most tend not to do well. I have always thought that a Fordson Super Major would be well suited w/ the 38" rears and the torque that 220 diesel puts out. Has anyone ever seen one pull?

: : : : Dose anyone ever pull Ford tractors in antique classes
: : : : I have yet to see one. My neighbor used to do well pulling his Jubilee
: : : : when it was new. : : : I have never seen a Ford used for pulling either, I think they are just too light to compete in the most common classes. : : i saw 1 in murry kentucky it was a 8n i think. it really sat down hill with those 38 inch tires. but i dont think he did very well An elderly gentleman from here in Western NY pulls a Fordson Major and cleans house with it in the 6500# class pulling a stone boat. Also a good friend of mine pulls a 1956 960 and is also very difficult to beat. The 8N's usually run out of power and have to high a low gear for stone boat pulling. Enjoy, Dan
