Today I finally got a chance to do some more painting on the tractor(s). I put Ferguson Gray on the grill for the 9N, Gray on the grill and the air filter funnel for the 8N, and a bit of red primer on the spare top link that I had repaired. The top link had one end stuck and it would not unscrew. The ball falls out of the end so I will get to fix that by using a steel punch to make a burr in three or four places to hold the ball in its socket. It that does not work I will have someone weld a few spots on the socket to accomplish the same thing. The top link was given to me so it is no big deal. The 8N grill is a replacement for the one on the 8N which is not original. The 9N grill is also original. Both had some rust and one needed some straightening.
I am happy.
