ufda, $11,000 :O I saw another one at the Nowthen, MN tractor show a few years ago, I doubt there are only two of them. Here is a link for the fiberglass kits if you really want one.

You really have to like the Ford 8N a lot to build or buy this. It's neat, for sure, but ... :D

Ufda is right, there had been one for sale in western WI or MN a couple of years ago. I showed it to my Dad, I thought he was going to look at it, he loves his old Ford's. That one was priced comparable to a good 446, and I think it had a working deck.
This doesn't appear to have a front pto. Still cool, looks like it's had a lot of time put in. Widened stance.
It would be cool to have, my dad and uncles would get a kick out of it at the farm. Unfortunately, I'd be homeless :wife:

There was a business in the US at one time building small tractors for people. Tell them what make and model, and they would make it for you, don't know if its still going or not. I think I saw an article on it in the LAGT magazine, a number of years ago.

Just stumbled across this while looking on face book thing. This might be the business that I was thinking about that makes the small tractors.
