[quote="Old Magnet"]Hi and welcome😄
You have a first year production model 8T built in 1947.
Shared the same D318 6-cyl engine with the D6 8U/9U tractors.
The 8T ended production 1957, the tractors ended 1958.
I'll see if I can come up with the matching manual form #'s[/quote]
Amazing, thanks for the quick response.
This should keep you busy😄
