Is it possible to build a new antique tractor out of aftermarket parts? In working on a couple of old ford tractors I realized that aftermarket support for these, particularly the N series is pretty amazing. That got me thinking, are there enough aftermarket parts available for say the Ford 8N, that an (admittedly eccentric) person with the right know how (and deep pockets) could build themselves a brand new antique tractor out of replacement parts?
