i went to see another restored tractor yesterday.
i guy told me it was a 39 8n, and it was completely restored.
is it just me, or is my definition of restored twisted.?
it smoked, was painted with a brush,had caulking for gaskets,not to mention, paint right over bubbling rust on the hood, and ran like crap.asking price $3,500.
iv gone to see at least 20 8ns that the owner has told me were restored. what a disapointment...
one old fella told me his 8n was rough and needed work. it was the best of the lot. but still not good enough for me,
any how, this is my question....
did the early 8ns have a 3 speed and no draft controll? the ser. # was 8n22???.
i must say, the fella selling the tractor was at least entertaining....

Take you time and you will find what you are looking for.
Just remember a good running tractor is the way to go. And rear tires are expensive. Complete sheet metal replacement "not OEM" is about $500. + or - .

The word "Restored is as abused as the word "Hero".

Three speed, one brake pedal on each side, no position control= 9N/2N. Best guess is a 9N/2N with a rebuilt/replaced 8N engine.

If you believe half of what sellers tell you about their machines have I got a bridge for you. Never saw a beat to death pos that didn't have a "rebuilt" engine/transmission/both but the seller just lost the receipts.

Your mileage may vary
