thanks jethro

Hello there I am commenting about the colour of the the 8N only to let you know that it looks White on the video and the original Ford Grey is actually a little more Sandy coloured so if you are thinking of repainting it at some point you might want to look into that original Ford Grey I think Dennis Carpenter tractor restoration parts sells the paint. Having said that your tractor does look very good and I don’t want to be a know it all ! I hate when people comment only to try to look smart or to belittle someone that is not my end game you’re a smart articulate person and I enjoyed the video and the rear axle seals and the steering sector seals always want to leak but don’t let any one tell you that those leaks can’t be fixed they can but you have to follow each step in the I&T shop manual it’s an excellent asset to have And both Steiner Tractor parts and Dennis Carpenter tractor restoration parts will send you a parts catalog for free and it’s great for pricing parts. And I think that your Dad must really love you in order to will you that really cool and handy antique tractor Keep that old iron running my friend!😀🇨🇦

Thank you for the kind words! I'm actually fine with the bodywork and paint being a bit rough, because I actually used that tractor and such like it was intended to be. I had purchased a John Deere Gator with a dump bed for good price and surprised him with shortly after he bought that tractor, after which he gave me the tractor. As he got older and his mobility got worse the gator worked perfectly for him. I definitely need to do those axle seals, and clean the brakes up so they will work.! I did not mention it in the video, but you can hear an exhaust leak. The manifold is warped, I need to remove it and have it milled if possible or replace it. Other than that she's a good ol tractor. 😎
