I would love to have one of those. We finished a 41 Cub Cadet a couple of months ago. Love those old tractors.

Enjoy!

Runs like a top. It came with a Bushhog, finish mower, blade and harrow.

Haha, 8N that's awesome. There's one at my grandma's. Wish it still ran.

My brother has one. Rear wheels are reversable if you need wider track.

"I've Heard" the problem with 8N's is that when you disengage the PTO, the rotating mass will keep pushing you forward or something. 9N's didn't do that. So I've heard from my neighbors when I lived in Texas.

Anyway, cool find.

You could always swap a flat head V8 in there :

Or a V12 :

The v8 was a conversion done by Funk, same folks who built airplanes.

I learned to drive on one of those. Still drive everything the same way, just ask anybody who's watched me.

Cool score!
