I have got two words for you: FARMALL 140! It has got about the same horsepower as an 8N, but it is far more useful because of its incredible torque (2-14" plow 8 inches deep in second gear). Plus, it has "cultivision", so you can run a medium size market garden on the side. We tedder and rake our coastal bermuda all the time with a 140. We cut and bale with a 464, but I am sure that if we had the right size sickle mower the 140 could handle it. It should also be able to square bale in 1st gear. Power wise, it is everything and more that you could need. It pulled a wagon that was fully loaded (120 36"x18"square bales) down the road in high gear last year. Nebraska tractor tests says that it is virtually equal in terms of drawbar pull with a Farmall H. Also, a Farmall 140 has a fast hitch, which is like the 3 point hitch your 8N will have, except it is 5 times easier to hook up implements on the fast hitch. As a bonus, while the 140 may be old, it certainly isn't ugly! Around here (North Carolina), a 140 with cultivators, plow, fast hitch, disk, fertilizer distributor/hopper, etc. can sell for $6,000, but the price will certainly be much less in Maine.

Let's take a closer look, now, at the cooling system since it has to work so hard in the summer heat. Cooling systems can be real cantankerous in their old age. Radiator cores clog up with rust, lime or other mineral deposits and the fins clog up with weed seeds and debris. The metal headers slowly corrode away from years of use and
