I'm speechless

Hmmm?

Surely, he posted the wrong pic?

look at all the extra exposure he got by doing that.

Well boys you all missed that its a very very rare 1958 8N not the run of the mill 48 to 52 ones

I'd bet he meant Bn. gm

With all the typo's and screw ups I see on here it doesn't surprise me a bit! Probably doing it from a phone, but I occasionally make a mistake using a computer.

For that money I would buy it!

wrong colour

Click bait.

I agree. Clickbait.

(quoted from post at 10:10:30 12/30/22) I'd bet he meant Bn.

It's not one of those either. Looks like an H to me.

Is this a scam? Or what? Or just the work of a highly un-organized person (getting the wrong picture attached to the ad)??

For what it's worth, some elderly people have long lost kids that they have had no contact with for years and years. And for a what ever reason. The kids no longer know anything about thier parent, much less anything about thier belongings. Just get a call one day from the local sheriff from where ever that parent happened to of been living. Phone call informs them that thier pops has died in the local nursing home, and that they are the next of kin, and need to come forward to make funeral arrangements and liquidate the belongings.
It's kind of sad. But for some families, this is how it ends up to be. And if there was hard feelings, sometimes the kid will just liquidate the personal belongings the quickest way possible, and not knowing a thing about them.

Makes a guy wonder if that happened here. But thinking the odds are more likely for it to be a scam.

Another oddity. --- probably has nothing to do with this advertisement, but Roger12345 posted a post on the IH forum just hours before this was posted, about rear tires on a cub being on correctly or being on backwards. I see the tires on this tractor in this ad, are likewise on backwards. Probably had no connection what so ever. Just noting the oddity of the 2 posts coming up right about the same time.

X2. Looks like an H to me as well.

The missing H decal, might be responsible
for adding some confusion to all.

The BN senerio might of been a joke by
using the N in 8N to inaccurately identify
the tractor in the ad as being an 8N.

This could be a scam, more likely it is from an estate sale, a moving sale or a divorce sale. The author probably just wants it gone (whatever it is) so they do not have to pay to have it hauled away.

Most likely some one who know nothing about tractors and was told all tractors are 8Ns

He posted the same question about tires on a Facebook group.... Maybe didn't get the answer he wanted there so tried here?

Old
2 people didn't know anything about tractors.
One that asked and the other who gave the wrong answer.

Did you GOOGLE the phone number in the FBM posting?





''Johnny Windham'' comes up there, as well.

Pretty much blows the ''uninformed heir'' and ''moving'' or ''divorce'' theories out of the water, IMHO. (LOL!)

Clickbait

Wife, girlfriend, child, etc. hepled out and actually made the Facebook post.

Or else that is 'click bait'. Where you call the item by some totally wrong name just to get attention.

It identifies as an 8N,gotta keep up on latest happenings in society.
