There's been from time to time talk concerning what 8N's are going for. I saw an ad in the Florence Alabama paper today that advertised a "working" 8N with new bush hog for sale for $2000 as an asking price.


Also, saw an 8N sitting in Florence that I have never seen or heard of before. The tractor has smooth heavy iron wheels all the way around on all four wheels. The rear looked to be 18-24 inches wide.

There was also an even wider four wheel set lying stacked on the ground. Any one out there got an idea what the purpose might be? Anyone ever seen one like this before. I may try to scrounge up a digital camera and take a picture to post of this one.

Local sod farms around here use wide smooth steel wheels on their tractors, better weight distribution, less impact on the sod.

Did the other set of wheels have steel type treads of some sort?

The other set was a wider set of all steel smooth wheels. This thing looked a lot like sorm form of an asphalt roller or such.

Wierd, only the 2N was shown with steel wheels due to WWII but they had steel gripping ribs.

I beleive then smooth wide wheels were an early "turf Tire" for mowing lawns and golf courses without damaging the greens. I've seen them somewhere described as this but I don't remember where. Truck

Sounds like it was used for light duty rolling like stone roads or landscaping use, maybe asphalt drives..things like that.
