This is the first of several threads. I put each model of tractor in a separate thread. Oh yeah, each tractor you will see was owned by the same man.

This 8N had the original sickle bar and a Dearborn plow.

As you'll see, this guy had every emblem on all of the tractors. Everything original and a sight to behold.

Watch for threads on the tractors you see in the background.

Everything original except the front bumper and those strange headlight mounts?

OK Don, what does the "original bumper" look like?
It certainly not what is being sold on E-Bay.
My brother-in-law has what I considered an original 8N bumper on his complete original 8N tractor. It has 4 mounting holes to the tractor, the second from the bottom bar is heavier than the rest and it has a piece welded in the center behind the heavy bar with the protruding part for a hitch ball or pin for extra support. Thanks in advance for your time,
Dave OH

Actually, there is occasionally an original bumper at auction on ebay...

Take a look at John Smith's site below for some good shots of an original bumper. The home page has a good one, then select Accessories from the bottom of the page. Scroll down on that page and you'll find another good closeup.

The key thing to look for is the bar that bolts to the axle has a slight S curve bend downward on the sides. There is only one bolt hole on each side.

Also search the archives...there have been a lot of posts about the bumpers and someone put out a schematic of the dimensions so you can construct your own.

Notice a lot of those goofy triangle brackets on N's in the Newsletter. Why? Does't make the lights closer together for loader application. Sure doesn't look better. Maybe the mounting holes are ripped out and it is an easy way to cover?

I wish I had goofy looking headlight brackets. Then maybe I'd have something to put my headlights on. But that's just my way of thinking. Me and my 2N...not as good as new, but both perform when asked.
LMAO, Dave

Those were the original mounting brackets that came with the lighting kits sold in Canada. Don't know why they were different than the US kits, but they were.

So they could be considered original. I stand corrected. I forget, did any N's come from the factory with lights or were all the lights installed by the dealers?

All lights were installed by the dealers.

Hey! some sensitivity please! Mine has those goofy brackets on the lights! I think a lot of those got put on by the dealers as I've seen a few here in Canada with them on. Oddly enough my rear work light has a cast deco winged bracket on it. StuK

Sorry Don, can't fool the pro's I guess. I hadn't noticed the mounts but I'll retract the "everything" original.
