I have a chance to buy an old fordson, the one model that was made before the 8n, etc. I don't know much about fordsons as I am a farmall dude, this would be my first move away from those. The tractor is in tact, rubber is shot but the tractor is whole, except for the spark plug wires and the fuel cap. Have no idea what shape the inside is in. Question is what would be a fair-rough price on this machine?

The Fordson made just before the 8N, and alongside of it was the E27N. 1945-52. You should see this on some of the castings. But I'm assuming you are talking about a prewar model. If it is a row-crop it is worth quite a lot. If it has F&H spoked wheels (not welded cut-offs) They are worth quite a lot. By the way, if it has a magneto down on the front right side of the engine, it is the N-series Made in Ireland or England. If it has a coilbox, it is the F, made in US. If it is the plain plow tractor, with cut-off wheels, complete with loose engine, good fenders, good gas tank, probably about $500-1000 top. It's worth most if it's close by, if it has some rare accessories or implements, or if you have a family history with it, etc. If it has genuine spoked rubber tired wheels, that's almost as much more. If it's a row crop, perhaps twice that again. Be aware that so much was interchangeable, you might have a mixture of parts. Check your serial number for engine date. If it's an N, 1937 was last year with air intake on the steering column. 1937 was also last year for Blue paint, until 1945. Hope you can make something of this.

Thankyou for your reply. I found out a little bit more about the tractor. The owner said that its a 1923 model. It does have some histroy as he used to use it. He did tell me that he has been offered a $1000.00 and he still has it so take it from there, so he says. As far as other stuff, the mag assembly is down on the left front and it is a fordson as it says so on the back side of the fuel tank. The owner said that he used to crank start it on gas then switch over to diesel. I didn't pay that much attention to the type of wheels or other particulars. Any other help would be appreciated.
