Ford Tractor photo thread, lets start one!

Here is my Ford 2000

 

[Atvjoe]

Hi to all. It’s a 1990 Ford 1920 SMC 84Q FEL. With a New Holland hood, I have been working on Hydraulics with really bad water contamination and added lights , my friend made the rear fenders.

Well I am kinda late jumping in here. I bought this old clunker from pictures on the internet. Drove from CA to OK to pick it up. Didn’t take much before pictures. It’s a 1985 445A. Started with a rusted out wheel that I couldn’t locate, but I found the bare rim.

Let's start a photo thread with current/older Ford tractors. I'd say Ford/NH transition tractors to be included as well. Post year and hours. I'll start with one.

1994 Ford 4630 with 1402 hours

I wish Ford still made them like yours. There is a place for tractors that are not overly complex and are reliable.

 

[aircommuter]

Just about every pin and the holes they went in were shot as the pictures will show.

 

[aircommuter]

I think I exceeded the number of photos without showing the final wheel. I rebuilt the Gannon box and every cylinder on the entire tractor. All the hoses were replaced also

Well it is a photo thread so here’s my next set.

My ford 3400 , great tractor.

Nice. My father had a 4400 gas which had set in the barn for several years. After he passed away my brother was all about selling it while I wanted to run it for a while, get the kinks worked back out of it from sitting, and then get fair market value for it.
I wouldn't work on it in the barn so had to have his help getting it out; as soon as it saw daylight our greenhouse tenant offered $3000 for it.
I spent a day getting it running and down the road it went. With a little work we probably could have gotten twice that... or sold the Kubota and kept the Ford.

 

[aircommuter]

Lots of aftermarket parts for those old Fords around. Not sure about Kubota.
Here’s a few pictures of the bucket conversion to quick change.
I also have a Massey Ferguson crawler restoration project going now on here. Check it out; called another restoration.

aircommuter,
I really don't think the OP meant this thread to be for your tractor project photos, but photos of complete tractors. If you want to post your project photos, make your own thread.
hugs, Brandi

I will send a PM over there and ask or are you the spokesperson?? I looked back and saw some disassembled pieces. Even a guy stringing up a fish on the back of pickup truck. I didn’t see your response to him. Guess I missed it. I don’t post for my benefit but rather for others. It is a pain taking all these pictures but I hope someone can benefit from my 60 plus years in the heavy equipment business. In the future maybe I should just post one picture before and one after, making reference to to your name as why the limited photos and the can PM if they want more.

Maybe if you opened a NEW thread about restoration you would find out how many people are REALLY interested in your projects.
It would make it easier for people to find you.

I was only on here because of the holiday. Sorry I got in the way. I usually just stay in the shop. Going back to that. Nothing accomplished doing this.

Don't worry about a couple of whiners,
nothing wrong with your pics, could have had a bit more info and dialog with them.
Good work on the ol girl.

It’s all good, I like looking at people’s projects

My Mom pushing snow with our old Ford, January 1971.

 

[Hay Dude]

That photo is great. Captures the tractor, the snowplow, the effort used with it to clear snow and family history all in one.
Thanks for sharing, DesertEagle 71.
