"I have a bid in on a shop manual on e*ay."

I like the black hands. Nice touch of "earthy" realism there. You should ask Joe if he gets that too.

I think you ought to bring that shot to your next gig… use it as a CD cover, etc.

Besides, I could always post it at work.

I also have a 1951 Ford 8N tractor. And by the way I have the shop manual. I can copy it if you wish. I have had mine for about 17 years. I rebuilt the engine, and the hydraulics some years ago. The hydraulic problem you describe can be resolved with a rebuild kit. However mine was caused by wear in the master cyinder and nothing has fixed it.<br /> Mine has the original 6 volt positive ground system still on it. Send me an email and I can copy the manual. I also noticed that you have the narrow tires on the front. Those are actually 9N tires on an 8N tractor. The tires are very hard to get on and off the rims to fix flats or replace the tubes. Modern rims (ag rims)and tires will work on the 8N, as I can attest to.<br /> <br /> Thanks<br /> Joe Gregar My name is Joe Gregar and I work with Leigh Dennert. I also have a 1951 Ford 8N tractor.

You look so natural on your new tractor. It is such a nice shiny red one, too; it doesn't seem like it could be 50 years old!! It's an attractive model. You obviously got a great deal.
