Your post brings a smile to my face.My father was a die hard Oliver Farmer,But, in 1948 he bought,much to the amazement of all the neighbors and my mom and us kids especially ,a new little Ford 8N.Times must have been good for our farm after the war as he in 1950 bought a new Oliver 88 while not trading any thing away. In 1955 he bought a new Oliver Super 99.Now back to the 8N. He used it like a car.It had a fairly fast road gear and he would jump on it to go any where. It was not unusual to see him in any season of the year, whipping down the gravel road on his little 8N to go to his buddys,our neighbor for coffee and talk.The 8N never did much actual farm work in it's life time and who knows,maybe even now some one has it and is using it like a car to go see some one or some thing.It was sold at my dad"s estate sale in 1981 and I lost track of it after that.
