Finally slapped some paint on the 8N

It took a while to get some time to do it and I worked kind of slow but also kind of fast. I think you could call it a half slow and half fast job. Just need to paint the Ford logos. I think the Ford grey looks more like coffee to me but what the hey.

(quoted from post at 09:02:17 08/06/20) Beats me. They were on it when I got the tractor several years ago.
hat looks like a Ford pickup wheel. On Roswell, New Mexico Craigslist's there is an ad for a 42 9N. It has mobile home axle hubs on the front.
 
Huh. I've seen the swap to '38 ford car rims with the big bolt pattern but this one I don't know. Maybe someone else here can tell us.
 
I just purchased 8n and am fighting with painted threads.
Its like blue loctite.
Tape off the threads and areas not wanting paint.
Grease fittings to R pins.
I've been using Ether and brass wire brush to the threads and other painted fittings.
Prep. 1st.
