Rain, Rain, and more dang Rain. Can?t get anything done so I followed the wife around shopping at Flea Markets today and scored on a good deal I think, she saw it first and brought it to my attention. The proprietor?s wife saw me looking at it and then he approached me and said he needed to move it today, he had a $40 price tag on it and $20 for the pair of lights, I said I?d think about it while we continued to look around, he made me an offer of $25 for the hood and throwed the lights in for free and then loaded in the back of my wife?s Jeep Wrangler, I asked him where the rest of the tractor was and he didn?t know, he had got it at an estate sale, lol
I didn?t need it but will store it in the barn for now, wife said let?s make a table out of it. Picture not very good, it is a FORD script hood.

Good deal , just keep attending flea market's and more part's will show up. I purchased one two years ago for $25.00 am in the process of having it painted. Cheers, Murray
 
Wished I lived closer to you ,would purchase ,as that one look's nicer that the one on my early 8n. Cheers, Murray
 
Walked out to feed dogs while rain has slacked off, noticed price tag on N Ford hood had $89.00 on it, the guy really wanted it out of his way, I never haggled with him....
 
Looks pretty nice with only a couple little krinkles. That is why I post about the flea markets I frequent. Amazing what 500 other people just walk past and you almost have a seizure when you see it. Very lucky there are two really good flea markets near me. Just like a couple of months ago when I picked up this Skillsaw 77M for $100.oo. They list for $179.oo. This saw was brand new and cuts almost as if it has a magic power supply. Just keep looking in those flea markets.

I was looking at a few of my junkers last week end what I plan to do is cut them off just behind the Ford script install headlights and grill and hang it on the wall for a conversation piece... Sorta like a deer head :)...
