5.0 out of 5 stars A Must-Have for Ford Tractor Enthusiasts!, October 16, 1998
This review is from: Ford N Series Tractors (Farm Tractor Color History) (Hardcover)
As an owner of a 1952 Ford 8N tractor who is seriously considering a major restoration, this book has been a major source of inspiration. Fully packed with high-quality color photos, this book provides a comprehensive guide to the important details one should consider when buying or restoring a Ford N-Series tractor. Especially revealing are the charts outlining correct paint and trim details, including correct decal placement. A basic guide is provided for differentiating between the various N-Series tractors. Full-color photos of basic tractors, optional accessories and and rare models and aftermarket conversions make for an interesting read. A brief history of the Ford tractor and a vendor list and bibliography make this a valuable resource for those of us bitten by the Ford N-bug.

4.0 out of 5 stars A must-have book for the Ford tractor collector/restorer, February 9, 1999
This review is from: Ford N Series Tractors (Farm Tractor Color History) (Hardcover)
Although there may be a few minor details subject to scrutiny, this work meets an important need. Replete with color and B/W photos, the authors point out the differences between the various Ford N-models, and attempt to illustrate the important details to be considered when restoring these tractors. Paint details, variations in models and years, options, and anomalies are described in detail. As with many Motorbooks International publications, there is a tendancy to use oft-published photos, but this is not a major concern. A section on the popular Sherman auxiliary transmissions includes a table of various gear ratios and speed ranges. Original and aftermarket reproduction aprts are compared and the appendix includes a pretty thorough list of suppliers. While this book is not the final authority on the subject, it is by far the best thing yet to come out on this topic. Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars N tractor book, September 14, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ford N Series Tractors (Farm Tractor Color History) (Hardcover)
This book covers the 9N, 2N and 8N tractors. The Jubilee is hardly mentioned; but for 128 pages it gives you a little insight into each model. It also covers experimental and tractors made for show.
Good book for a 128 pages. It could have been 3 times bigger with more pictures.
