would a 47 ser no 8N be of much value? there is one advertised on CL about an hour away from me. i have not gotten a ser no from the seller; yet.
the tractor appears to be in VGC from the photos on CL.
thanks.

An 8N built in '47 will have no more or less value than any other front distributor 8N. If the serial number happens to be 3 digits, collector interest kicks in and eyebrows go up. If the serial number is 2 digits the collectors get rapid heartbeat symptoms. If the serial number was a single digit the collectors would get seriously interested and start frothing at the mouth. How the collector interest affects the value of those tractors is debatable. The collector value on a low serial number tractor would be higher than the average tractor, but not nearly as high as you might expect it to be. There's just not a lot of serious collectors out there.
