This genuine Ford oil pan is for the Model F Fordson tractors. There were built by the Ford Motor Company here in the USA between 1918 and 1928. Production of the Fordson tractor was transferred to England in later 1928 and later on to Ireland. I think the oil pan on those later tractors may be different than this one. Please help me out on whether or not this pan will fit the English or Irish production tractors if you can. I found this oil pan in the attic of the Ford dealer in Stanford Montana about 40 years ago. That dealership was owned by the Galt brothers at that time and was one of the oldest Ford dealerships in the USA that had never changed hands through the years. As you can barely see in the last photo, the word Stanford was written on the end of this pan in pencil many years ago. This oil pan has never been mounted or used at all and is still in great condition considering that it is most likely around 90 years old. The original gray paint is still mostly intack but is wearing thin in some places. Perhaps it was stored outside for a while at some point in it’s long life. I bought this pan so that I would have some nice original gray Fordson paint to match to when repainting my tractors. I realize that the oil pan on a Fordson tractor would only very rarely go bad and need to be replaced. That fact should make this a very rare part relative to other NOS Fordson parts. I think the main value of this gem will be for a serious Fordson collector to hang on the wall of his office or shop so he and his friends can enjoy looking at it. This may be the only NOS Fordson del F oil pan left in the entire world. I have plenty of secure inside storage here and can store this itme for you for many months if you or a friend are planning a trip to beautiful Montana some time in the future.
