I'd love to see a "field ready IH 340, 350 or 560 utility for 2 K. About the cheapest one of those I've seen in some time was pretty ruff for 3500. The OP did say his budget is about 2K. FWIW I do a lot of yard and garden work with an 8N. Too fast? OK, tell me another one.
The 8N is an OK tractor. They will, contrary to what another poster claimed run a 5' brush cutter in brush just fine. There are better tractors out there for not a lot more. The first thing you have to decide is which brand is best supported in your area. Just because there is a dealer there doesn't mean they have good service or parts.
While IMO the 8N is too small to run a hoe well they did sell hoe attachments for them. I wouldn't want to run a loader on one much without them having power steering. I own a stand alone tractor/backhoe/loader. Don't use it often but it's handy! You may be better off hiring or renting out some of the work.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
