Alright for "similar" money, take home an 800 series ford, 35/135 or something similar with live power.I bleed JD green and am still recommending the later ford or little Massey's.The Massey 35/135/235/65/165/265 were quite respectable. My neighbor who had used his/his Father's 8N since it was new. Turned it greasy side up on top of himself 3 yrs ago. He survived but his health took a down turn and he passed away less than a year later. Just too many people killed or crippled with the N's or any other machine.

The old N's have their place in history, but history is in the past.I don't has much use for JD's either that lack live power and decent brakes. It's really best at towing horse drawn equipment that has been converted to tractor use.Field spraying, irrigation pumps, standby generators. Or using the factory mounted plough in light soils, the disk or cultivator. I would have tried to put the cost of towing into more tractor located closer to home.
