My wife, grandson and I just got back this evening from a tractor show in Carrolton Ga.
There was a 48 8n there without a trace of paint on it anywhere. Everything was in mint condition. The axles were tight and no leaking seals.The original cloth wiring was still on it. The steering was the four bolt pitman bearing type and had never been adjusted. The clutch pedal had like new hash markes on it as did the brake pedals. It didn't have one dent in the sheet metal that I could see. The PTO looked like it had hardly ever been used. The tires were original except for one rear.
I never did find the owner to learn the history of the tractor but it sure did bring back fond memories. Somebody has really taken good care of this tractor all it's life.
Wish I had it. With a coat of paint it would be a beauty. I personally like it like it is.

Here is the picture of the tractor that I saw in Carrolton Ga. with my 12 year old grandson Rob McDonald standing by it. He loved the show and wants to go to more. That is if it will not conflict with his baseball games. He is going to be a major league pitcher is he keeps going the way he is now. Pitched 13 straight strike outs in the game before the last one. The last one he blew up and took himself out at the bottom of the 4th. We lost 7 to 8. Like to have killed him. I tried to tell him that you can't win them all but he would not be consoled.

May have sold a couple of ZANE THANGS while there.

That looks like an 8N to me, except what about the radius rods? They look like the I-beam style used on the 9/2Ns. Or am I just more cross-eyed than usual? According to Smith's ID page, the oval style radius rods were introduced in 1944 on the 2N; I supposed everything after that had the oval style. My c. 44-47 2N has the oval style. Enlightenment, please?

Looks like a high quality 8N! I saw one very similar to that last summer on 411 N of Atlanta, had a little more paint and the man wanted $3200, I was on my way to see our Grandson and did not check it out as well as I should have. Got home three days later and said to my self Hmm, $3200, and he said he would take offers. Called on the phone and another person answered and said that he thought it was sold as the man had already picked up the five implements. I Had seen a near new Bush Hog near the unit but no implements, yes they were included. In short don't hesitate to ask questions, what seems like a decent price could be a great one! Still kicking my rear a year later.

Tell that ball player to keep his focus, He is already far ahead of most his age and with dedication he can do it! Good Luck!

Zane, where did you get the information for these shows. I only live about 1 hour from Carolton and I would like to attend some of these shows in the future.

I ordered the Stemgas show listings and it came in this past week.
There is to be another show at Woodland Ga. in two weeks that I heard about at the show in Carrolton and I hope to attend. I think it will be in two weeks on a Saturday and maybe Sunday???

Don't write it in stone till I can confirm the date etc. It is not in the Stemgas listings.
There is to be one in Dalton Ga. soon too. I will get the listings and post it if you will remind me sometime today.

Ah, Dalton, carpet capitol of the world. Lived there in 1975. near top of thrill hill above the high school. Loved the area, but got laid off and the wife went back on active duty.. Post the date when you get it Zane, I may try to get there.
