Its a hard choice- if you buy the W6, you'll need to find a good cylinder head that isnt cracked. If you buy the Fordson, everybody within 2 miles of you will be able to track your movements by the sound of your rear end (the Fordson's noisy worm gear differential that is, but possibly yours as well depending on diet....).
If you have a cast-iron butt, a strong back and right arm, non-opposable thumbs and a willingness to learn a whole new starting procedure vocabulary then you should get the Fordson.
If you enjoy 20th century technological advancements such as electric starters and a burnt out light switch/voltage regulator/smoke and spark generator and the thought of turning on a 40 foot diametre dime is your definition of "maneuverable", then you need a W6.
The Fordson is smaller and easier to haul to a tractor show, to which fewer and fewer Fordsons are showing up at over the years, but the W6 is more operator friendly (comparably) and can still pull a wagon or trailing implement without any worries or drama.
