Well, a little anyway. I washed her up this morning after using it pretty hard the past week.




Then I noticed...the dreaded wearing off of the paint on the left floor board and step. Drat! Only 18 hours on it too. Wore the paint slap off. :eek:





Guess it's time for the truck bed treatment.




Sure thought it would would last a little longer than this :confused3:

Would the stuff from walmart work okay for this?

Should I touch up the paint first? It still has the gray primer on the spots.

Those wear spots will stay polished the more you use is.
I'm not sure why you would worry about that. . . It's a tractor.

Oh no ... It's ruined! Better ship it on over here and I'll try to find something it can still do.

I don't even see any paint missing. Every used tractor I have ever seen has paint missing.

I feel so abusive when I see cleaned up tractors. Good thing there isn't CPS authority over tractor parents. :laughing:

Yall can't have the tractor....but, I have an old red-head female I'll trade you for a grapple. She's about wore out but can get quite feisty in a moments notice, if she thinks I'm spending more money on the tractor than her. :laughing:

No thanks, I got an old white haired one that I am having to get a lot more work done on lately than on my tractor just to keep her going.:laughing:
