1951 8N Progress

nashranch · Apr 9, 2017

slowly putting back together this 8N basket case i bought a while back. It is in good shape. Tranny and rear end has been gone thru i was told. I did not go thru engine cuz it doesn't have any ridge on the piston sleeves. I did pull the valves and lap them in.

Stay tuned for my work in progress..she runs good for a 1951 8N. It does blow a little smoke and has 30lbs. oil pressure. I'm hoping to get a video of it running on Youtube here in the next couple days

Blows a little smoke? I'd run it and work it.
Believe it or not, it worked for this 640.
I added a quart of ATF to the gas and worked it. YMMV
