Thanks. I like all tractors, but the two big ones I wanted were a Farmall Cub and an N series Ford, and now I have both.

A couple years ago I had a dear neighbor who had a '51 8N. He passed away unexpectedly. I was helping his widow liquidate his various tractors, implements a barn stuff. I was cleaning up and servicing the 8N to sell. I couldn't let it go... I bought it from her (she wanted to give it to me). It runs great and I'm about ready to paint it.
I hope you enjoy your 8N as much as I do!

Thanks. I like all tractors, but I’m mostly an IH guy too. So far, I’m really liking this tractor. I can’t wait to get some attachments so I can actually use it. Cool picture too.
