By the way, how do you guys post more than one link?? I can only do one per post?? Bryce

You have to use HTML coding on the classic forum:

<a href="http://spokane.craigslist.org/grd/4410723758.html">Link 1 Spring tooth harrow</a>

Which is entered similar to:

{a href="http://spokane.craigslist.org/grd/4410723758.html"}Link 1 Spring tooth harrow{/a}

if you replace both the { with < and both } with > then it becomes a hyperlink. You can add as many as you want.

Ignore the " rel="nofollow" " if it shows up. Carrots (the greater than and less than signs) are HTML code and cause problems if you try to use them outside of coding.

yea the tires on the Ferg are pretty "descent"...funny....never saw such an engine put in a Ferg. I read and enjoy your posts....you are the 15 yr old guy right? Are you home schooled? Maybe cruising Craigslist during math class? just kidding of course. When I was 15 back in about 1963 I worked on Dad's tractors cause I had to then got back to my personal project, a 1952 Ford 2 door sedan I bought for $100. 3 flathead engines and all my money later I drove it for 4 more years until college. Our farm tractors were a Jubilee and an Oliver 770 row crop.

If that really is a Ford 3-cyl. diesel, and it runs good, the engine alone would be worth the asking price. I have a hard time believing it would bolt up to a Fergie tranny, though.

Bryce Frazier · Apr 16, 2014

Okay, I'll give it a shot!

We shall see if that worked, it is actually a link to a Ferguson 2 bottom plow... Bryce

It does look like the 3 cyl. engine though, what you can see of it. Has the plate for the cam driven hyd pump. I would like to see how it bolted together.

Mike (WA) · Apr 16, 2014

Yeah, that's a project that's kinda worth the money. Does look like only the top half of the engine is bolted to the bell housing, though, and if that's the case, it would be a real weak spot. And once you bust something like that in half, you've pretty much just got scrap metal left.

Still, Rathdrum is about 8 hours from me. . . And I haven't had a good road trip in awhile. . .

Bryce Frazier · Apr 16, 2014

Where abouts are you? This has been posted before, and the previous time they did it, there were a bunch more pictures... If I remember correctly, yes that is an IF, there was something that was butchered up on the right side of the tractor, and I wondered if that was why they didn't show the picture this time???

I think that would be a fantastic little tractor to have that engine in it, but still without the live pto, or even three point, I won't buy another one...

I inherited a TO-30 from the neighbor, and I bought a 2n, and my Super C Farmall with the three point hitch will smoke em both!

By the by, the neighbors paid $1200 for the 3 cyl diesel that they had to put in their 3400 Ford, it was running, and the tractor had been rolled and totaled..

Mike (WA) · Apr 16, 2014

I'm near Chehalis, WA, which is halfway between Portland and Seattle, on I5. I was kind of kidding about going to Rathdrum, because I've got more unfinished projects than I know what to do with, already.

Where are you? Name the town, please- I'm familiar with the Spokane area.

tractor

Fordfarmer · Apr 16, 2014

3400 should have a 175 c.i., which is what the one in the ad would be IF he has the right h.p. listed. (and that would be flywheel h.p.) $1200 is about right for a good, running 175".

Bryce Frazier · Apr 16, 2014

I'm up by Sandpoint ID. Actually I am in Sagle, but every one says "oops, you had a typo, I assume you meant Eagle?!" NO I MEANT Sagle!! We are exactly 1:45 from the airport in Spokane...

I think you should come get this tractor.. Whats one more right?!?!

Bryce

Royse · Apr 16, 2014

Is a $4200 Ford 9N good? LOL
It does come with a back blade you could use, chains that you
might be able to use, a rotary mower that's too big and a back
blade that's too small. I still can't see that price though.
His tractor, he can ask whatever he wants!

Bryce Frazier · Apr 16, 2014

I think you might be wrong there Royse...

Did you notice what appears to be what I am sure are "SUPER RARE AND VALUABLE" front rims?? (really, what in the world are they, sprockets from Billy's crashed 225 Honda??)

Or perhaps the factory option running boards??

Looks a little high to me, the brush hog looks like an accident waiting to happen!!! Something like that around here would advertise at about $3000, when all in all it is probably worth $1000 with the implements...

Nice find! Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings... Someone else might have to start the thread for me, have to leave for work at 6 and won't be back until 3.... FUN FUN FUN!!! Bryce

Royse · Apr 16, 2014

The rims, and probably the hubs, are from a Ford truck of about
the same vintage. They let you get rid of the skinny 4x19 tires
and put on wider 16 inch tires. Used truck tires in many cases.
Mine will hypnotize you when it's moving!

Pops1532 · Apr 16, 2014

Don't know if it's the same bolt pattern as pictured but 36-39 Ford cars used wheels that looked like that.
Many race cars still use the 36-39 Ford bolt pattern. Called wide 5, or modified.

Goose · Apr 16, 2014

Particularly quick change rear ends.

1. You need "a href=" in front of the quoted URL inside the carrots
2. after the end carrot you need the description of the link
3. after the description you need "/a" also in carrots
