Here's a hood that seems a bit high. I e mailed them to see if they had one too many zeros - no, that's the price! http://denver.craigslist.org/atq/2281030987.html It does have a dealer sticker of the local dealer I worked for while in High School, still not worth it to me, even if it was orange. ------------- "If at first you don't succeed, get a bigger hammer" Allis Express participant |

In my humble opinion it wouldn't be worth that with the rest of the tractor attached, unless it had a full tank of gas. before i take some flack, I'm joking------------- I am still confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. Ps 27 |

If it really is a fantastic piece and you truly 'restore' tractors(ie: back to original condition, no bondo,no lead,etc.) it's not that bad in the big picture, as you can easily have up to $8,000 into one small tractor.
Who among us haven't paid more for an item just because we wanted or needed it ?
Come on now, raise your hands...mine's up ,...

There's like a billion Ford 8N'S out there. For a little more money you can get a whole tractor with a hood. I see them all the time on CL.
Here's one with a mower.

| If they get that much money for that hood I have a complete 8N with low original hours no bondo, decent paint and straight sheet metal for sale. You can drive her home (or on to your trailer) for $19998. Price subject to change without notice. Hurry because this deal won't last! |
