Thank you all so much for the kind comments! I have had people come look at them and like them, and I've had several people come look thinking they are "show" tractors. They arrive to look at it thinking it is supposed to be perfect. I had one guy pass the cub up with the blue cultivators (pictured) becuase he didn't think the paint job was very good. I agree it doesn't has the gloss like it should. It has somewhat of a rough surface rather than slick. But I never advertise a tractor when I decide to sell one as show quality. I also had a guy knock me AFTER he drove the tractor and tried EVERYTHING on it to see if it worked (down to cutting doughnuts in the gravel trying out left and right brakes). He got off it, and tried to cut us down on the price by $800 because he said the paint wasn't as good as the pictures, and that the headlight decal was slighly off center (those are the hardest to place because they're semicircle, but the most obscure).
I'm wanting to get more of a gloss and smooth to the touch finish than what I'm getting. I am needing some help since I will be sandblasting all the sheetmetal, dashs, and fenders. I figure maybe some primer and special sanding would help. Maybe some sanding or buffing after paint? I really don't know, and thats where I need the suggestions. What to do, how to do it, and what products to use. THANKS AGAIN!

I had been casually looking for a tractor for weeks. I saw a few 9N's, but they had even fewer amenities than the 8N my Grandpa bought new in '52 with a Dearborn loader. That was 10 years before I was born, so I grew up thinking that 8N was the world's best tractor. Grandpa had greenhouses, with over half an acre under glass, and that 8N did almost everything. It was the only
