I'd be more concerned with things like a live PTO, live hydraulics, dual-range trans and maybe power steering. As to gas versus diesel? Depends on several factors. Gas is a lot easier to work on if you do your own repairs. How about fuel cost? If you cannot buy off-road or farm diesel and you pay full price for highway diesel - no huge advantage over gasoline for small time use. Then there is winter starting and operation. If it gets real cold where you are, gas is much nicer to have. I cannot imagine choosing a 9N for anything. If you want a Ford, get something with some added features like you can find in a 2000. Even an old Ferguson TO35 Deluxe has much better features then an 8N or a 9N or a Jubilee/600 series.
Keep in mind too that parts are getting scarce for some of the older diesels. So are the skilled mechanics that actually know how to work on them properly.
