[AT] Fw: Ford 8n TRY#3 with the right email address this time

[Mike Sloane]

There has been a front end loader for an 8N for sale at 
www.lancasterfarming.com (in the Mailbox Markets section - do a search 
for "loader") for at least 6 months with no takers. I agree with Chuck 
that everything I have heard about 8Ns and loaders is that they are very 
hard to steer and cause a LOT of extra wear/damage to the steering 
components.

And I agree that the price seems quite high. That sounds like a $2000 
tractor (when it can be started and you can hear it running with no 
smoke/noises) and maybe another $1000 for the implements (if they are in 
very good condition  - check out the gearboxes/bearings on the mowers!)
