I recently picked up a couple honeys- in the fall I got a '53 SMD, original owner's son, and they had a lot of tractors- 1082 on the engine hour meter, and the tractor looks like it- pedals and such look like new, NO wear, sheet metal is cherry, shift knob & wheel nice, tight wide front, etc. They had an MD set up with multiple hyd valves and 18.4-38's so this one didn't get used much. Just at Christmas I picked up a sweet little '50 8N, original owner's son again, nice Calistoga ranch tractor, just used a little for mowing, etc., doesn't even have wheel weights, 1042 hrs- and again, it looks it. Everything's nice, pedals, sheet metal, proofmeter works perfect, hitch works crisply, tight steering, good brakes. Looks like it had a dealership bluebelly paint job done a long time ago, as everything was immaculately detailed and painted, but you can see the original red showing through in a few places. It's also been kept inside most of it's life. They also had a 9N and an NAA that look like they were rode hard- this one had a miss and had started smoking about 10 years ago, and had just been moved around since, they had never bothered to work on it as they had sold most of the property and didn't need it. Just had a broken plug wire, and the "dead" cylinder was loaded up with oil from not firing. Borrowed a wire off a core engine, fresh plugs and clean the points, and a Seafoam treatment, and she's purring- starts & runs really nice. Never even fouled a plug as it burned the oil out of the "dead" cylinder
