Hi Folks,
My family has 52 acres of partial forested land near Waco, TX, and about 5-7 acres need (or should) mowing. Since I'm now responsible for upkeep and possible sale down the road, I've been shopping around for a tractor (my first).
I found a '52 8N in decent shape yesterday. The rear tires need to be replaced (either new or used) and it will some minor adjustments. After inspecting it I made a verbal offer which was accepted. Even if I went with new tires and were to sell it later, I will still be in the black. I'm due to pay for it and pick it up this week.
The guy facilitating the sale is doing so on behalf of a woman going through a divorce so he"s not the true owner. While I think he's an honest individual, given the prevalence of scammers these days, it"s better to be safe than sorry. When I made the offer, it was at the end of a long day so it didn't occur to me at that moment to ask what kind of ownership documentation is the norm for a 57yo tractor.
Can someone enlighten me as to what kind I documents I should get or have to prove ownership? What's the norm?

He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see.
