Ken, You will not regret it. As TOH says look for pretty much the same things you would when buying an N. Generally, after owning an N you will find them very familiar. By the X01s they all had the round piston pumps which are pretty reliable but can be rebuilt for under $200 if need be. I always wanted a 601 instead of an 801 because I didn't need all that extra HP and the 801s are so darned thirsty. If it's a 5 speed you will want to decelerate going down a hill to see if it pops out of 3rd. 3rd got used more than any other and so detents and shift forks wore on them. The 4 speeds are bullet proof but no LPTO on those. If your 8N has a Sherman and the 01 has a 4 spd I'm pretty sure could transfer it to the new tractor before you sold the N (if you do). Does the tractor have PS? Once you've had it you will never go back. If the tractor has a remote hyd valve consider adding a hydraulic top link. No more turning that darned manual one. We're rooting for you here.
