Supercharged flathead V8 8n tractor video

V8 tractor starts at about the 1:58 mark.
I thought I might do this to my 8n someday, but I sold it when I needed the room for my '41 coupe.

I enjoyed it, also. I have a antique, 11 tractor collection, 6 of them Fords.

There are a couple of Funk tractors, in my area. A 226 and 223 OHV, version.

I have seen that tractor at some car shows over the years. Always draws a crowd.

Guy got crazy with the chrome acorn nuts. Put a blade on the front and you can clear some driveways in style in the winter. Neat!

Very interesting especially about the six cylinder model we only seen the four cylinder models here.

I got a hold of the guy that owns it. So here you go. He says it's for sale, too, $8000. Over priced if you ask me but, to each his own.

If anyone's interested, contact me, I'll give you the phone #.

Here is a link to the 8n turbine powered tractor that was donated to the Early Ford V8 Foundation Museum in Auburn, In. recently.
