Vehicle Description
STK 2952 1953 Ford Golden Jubliee Tractor
The Ford NNA tractor was introduced by Ford as an entirely new
model in 1953 and dubbed the 'Golden Jubilee' - Ford's 50th
Anniversary. It was designed as a replacement for the Ford N-Series
tractors. The NAA designation was reference to the first three
digits of the serial number used with this tractor. It is slightly
larger than its predecessors - four inches longer, four inches
higher and 100 pounds heavier at 2,840 pounds. The NNA featured
streamlined styling, 50th-year Golden Jubilee badging (popular with
collectors today), a new engine and new hydraulics. Our 1953 Ford
NNA has been fully restored and part the Dennis Carpenter
collection for many years. Under the NAA's new hood is a 'Red
Tiger' 134-cu.in. overhead-valve, gasoline inline four-cylinder
engine outputting 32 hp. A four-speed transmission was standard on
the NAA. (There was also a Sherman overdrive unit that was
installed on some NNAs tractors, but it is not on this tractor.)
The NAA's new 'Solid System' live hydraulics relied on an
engine-driven hydraulic pump rather than the PTO-driven pump that
was standard issue on the earlier 8N tractor. This versatile system
allowed the hydraulics to be operated without the PTO being
engaged. The 1953 NNA was also the first tractor that Ford built
after a court battle with Harry Ferguson in 1952 that resulted in
the 'Ford-Ferguson 3-Point Hitch System'. Our 'Golden Jubilee' Ford
tractor is a timepiece that is ready for a new home - is your barn
ready? ALL VEHICLES SOLD "AS IS".
