OT - More CL fun

[Royse]

I know, I know, but there are so many things wrong with this "1946 Ford 8N" ad. Including the $5000 price.
Not my ad obviously.

Yep looks to be an over priced miss guessed 2N from what I can see. Sent him an e-mail bet he will not like what I said but I let people know the truth even if they do not understand the truth

 

[Anonymous-0]

Well what more could you possibly want? It looks like it comes with a nice soft seat a log chain and a couple of rubber straps and even a center link.

 

[asphelt]

I wonder if the price includes both 2N's and the well maintained pickup in the background? Nahhh, probably still about 2x more than it should be!

 

[Jim in Ma.]

Hey! I like the hand break idea.

 

[Billie R. Smith]

I see he changed it to 2N in his add.Any Idea what state he is in ? we do have a Rockford here in Mi.

 

[Bob - MI]

He's local to me. I guess I should take mine over to him and see if he's interested in mine for about $4500.00 I have a loader and a new seat cover. That should be worth a lot more.

Seriously, I read CL for amusement on my lunch hour most days. It amazes me how many whacked out ads you see. The spelling issues are worth the cost of admission.

 

[old]

No idea where he is but I do know I got an e-mail from him saying thanks for letting him know more about what it is and what if maybe worth. He said he is selling it for a neighbor who is real old so the guy has forgotten for sure what it is and all

 

[John in Mich]

He is in Mich. if my tracking is correct.

 

[old]

I asked him where he is and he said Rockford MI so yep up your way. He also said he was offered $700 for it and told the guy it would rust away before it sold that cheap.

 

[old]

I have talked to the guy who has it listed and he is doing that for a neighbor of his who is old and had to move off the farm. I have told him what it is an all and has since changed the ad and talked to the owner some. He did say he has been offered $700 for it but the old guy said heck no it will rust away before he sells it that cheap

 

[Royse]

Yes sir. Grand Rapids listing.
Two 9Ns were listed a few weeks ago in this area for $600 each. One running, one with a loader but not running. Ad said "no spark".
Those didn't stay out there long and I didn't get to look at them to see what they were.
I passed on a 9N for $700, but bought a different 9N, good runner, 12 volt conversion with nearly new rear tires for that price.

 

[Tom N MS]

Maybe they can sell a pair easier--I will let em list mine with theirs at the same price...sad thing is, I bet I have $4000 in mine and it sure isn't a show piece..You can sink way more than they are worth in em quick..
