While the job's not complete, I'm getting close enough that I thought I'd share some before and after pics of the tractor;

While you'd never mistake this for a 'restoration', I think it's a definite improvement. Smiley

The main job remaining is the repair and installation of the wiring harness. After that, I'll bolt on a few bits like steering wheel, seat, sheetmetal, etc., and I'll be back in business.

It's been.. interesting. And about four times the work that I estimated going in! Laughing out loud! I'm pleased with the results so far - the old girl runs so good, and had so obviously been unloved and neglected, that she deserved a bit of a makeover! Rolling on the floor laughing my a.. off!
