Ford 1920 compact tractor

[tim361]

Bit of a long shot but does anyone have any knowledge on these. I've been offered one with less than 1000 hrs on the clock for £4k. I don't really know if this is a good price or not and what they are like as tractor. Would be looking to use it to run a splitter and a saw bench.

 

Cheers all.

Hi Tim

I had 1720 just slightly less HP, i run a hycrack from it, done the job, but done the clutch in twice! didnt really have a good flow rate for the hydraulic splitter either? it was handy with the front loader for moving wood! mines was 10 years old with lewis loader on, sold it for £2500! 4k seems ok! dependent on its condition! they hold money!

the ford badge doesnt really mean much, its still a japanese engine, spares are easy to come buy as most of the Iseki/YTO/Shibaura type tractors have the same parts, you could probably pick up a good 60/80hp classic for that money that someone has spent a fortune on restoring!

Cheers
