Thanks for all the "legit" (sans thurlow) feedback. I found an 8N near Dallas that runs strong, no smoke, solid steering and hydraulics, and cleaned up (sanded, primed, painted) to the point that I should not have to worry about protecting steel, tin, or running gear for some time. All rubber is good. It will be kept inside Coverall once I get it up to the property.

Have noted of the safety issues mentioned. Will be adding a (close to original) front bumper so I can add weights to the front. (Pulled the front end off the ground in 3rd, and will never touch 4th gear again!) Do not want to die until I walk all 3 daughters down the isle.

I think this rig will work fine. If any one can recommend a good source for locating a close to original front bumper, 12V headlights, and a new boot for the shifter, I would appreciate your continued feedback.

Thanks again! Ed Luskey
