  Derek, this is probably my favorite video you've ever posted. My pawpaw farmed until he was 94 years old, and he just couldn't anymore. He ALWAYS dressed just like you in this video, and he was about your size. Seeing you kneeling beside that front tire actually made me shed a tear for the Ole man. Who would have thought that a video of an old tractor would bring back such great memories. Thank you for this one. Mike.

  My great grandma wanted a tractor for their house because she was tired of working the land by hand, and so my great grandpa sold one of his service stations in 1954 to buy a 1949 8N. My great grandma returned the favor the next year by "saving up 2 months of grocery money" to buy my grandpa a 94 winchester to go hunting with his buddies. These old fords make me smile whenever I see one, and I'm so glad to watch you work on one.

  One of the cleanest 8Ns I've seen in a long time. My Dad bought me one like it sixty-three years ago for my 10th birthday, gave me ten minutes of instruction and I was a farmer.

  My comment here is a year after this was aired, but this was so satisfying to watch. I was raised as a farm kid. I work on cars you made my day.

  I love how Derick tries to play it off like he is just too lazy to bring his other tractor over. He just can&apos;t stand seeing something sitting around not running! The man loves to save things and give them new life.

  These old tractors will probably outlive everyone watching this video.

  75 yo Canadian man here, who grew up on a mixed fruit orchard in a small town in the Okanagan Valley. &nbsp;My uncle owned a 20 acre orchard, my parents 10 acres, my maternal grandmother 5 acres, all neighbouring each other. &nbsp;My uncle Don was a mining engineer who took a job in the mid-1950s with the then-new Inland Natural Gas company that was bringing gas to the Valley, and my dad left his job at a local packinghouse to operate all the orchards while Don was away. &nbsp;<br>I was 9 ~10 [?] years old when I was first allowed to drive my uncle&apos;s Ford 8N, and it was my favourite power plant for general hauling, rototilling, spraying &amp; mowing until I left home at age 17 to study physics at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver in the fall of 1965. &nbsp;Hearing this 8N running again brought memories to my mind &amp; tears to my eyes. &nbsp;Thank you, &nbsp;VGG...
