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? Or are there certain parts (engine block, Transmission housing come to mind) that just aren't available new (or as new old stock) I realize that this would be kind of dumb from a financial standpoint, especially given how common these tractors are, so practically I guess the only way I can ever really see this happening is as a marketing campaign for an aftermarket parts company or something along those lines. I just want to know if it is theoretically possible. This is a thought that has been bugging me for a while, and I figured I would throw it out there and see if any interesting ideas surfaced or if anyone had relevant stories
