This is to do with one I might have missed but didn't. My granddad bought a new 8n in 1950 and when he died in 1967 my cousins bought the farm. They bought the tractor and equipment seperately and had not paid my grandmother two years later when they were selling the farm. I bought it even though I didn't really need a tractor in the city. After new wheels and tires,an engine overhaul,and a paint job, it has been my faithful companion over 30 years now.It has been joined by a second 8n,a 641,a 961,a 4500 TLB,a case VAC,and a JD MT, still on a two acre city lot. Best to buy when opportunity knocks and decide later if it was a mistake. You just never know.
