Big Sale Is On - UPDATED 03-26-26

The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.

I use Rust-oleum sunrise red and Rust-oleum self etching primer. The Rust-oleum takes longer to dry but seems to be fairly durable.

I've wondered several times, who feels the need to drill all these holes in some of these old tractors. :doh

Got a bit more done today. While waiting for body fill to set I bolted the transmission to the frame, now it is starting to take shape. Finally finished the body work on the hood and got it primed, in all I have over two days in the hood, but it looks good.
