Pass on both.... get a GOOD running tractor, as life is too short to buy problems. Engine problems can cost you 5 grand for a rebuild. 3 grand will buy you a great running tractor with live pto and live hydraulics.
8n is a 23 hp tractor built from 1948 to 1953, the crossover year for the naa line. Parts are readily available and cheap as over 500,000 were built in the series. This tractor was sold to replace two mules and price at the same price. but its a very limited tractor due to non live pto and non live hydraulics. 1st gear is way to fast for most work. So if you have more than a acre or two, best to get a more modern tractor. Jump up to a 1965 or newer ford 3000 with 8 speed transmission and you have a very nice tractor for about a grand more at 38 pto hp. Aftermarket parts are plentiful and cheap as this series was sold in every country in the world and had 3 factories running around the world. A massey 135 also a very good tractor but parts are a bit higher. Parts support for other tractors is a bit more difficult if not impossible.
Stay away from power shifts, sos, 4 speeds, and other troublesome variations. A diesel is usually the better choice. Buying a GOOD running tractor is the most important.
