I am looking for the side panels for a Century 3035 or Branson 3520, apparently Branson has discontinued making these. Does anyone know of a Century/Branson graveyard or know of where I might find these?

Thanks for the lead to Panhandle, they are going to check Monday to see if side panels from another model might work. There are a few side panels that are similar but not quite the same, so may be worth taking a chance to see if they can be modified to work. 4520 has a slightly different P/N and 4720 has a similar panel that hinges/slides instead of lifting off. Will update when I hear back.

where they able to get you hooked up CEN3035, i had another customer ask me about this, just wanted to see what you were able to come up with.
Asteral, it was good talking with you today. I am going to go ahead and order the side panels for a 38/42/ & 4720 (NTD6870000B0 & NTD6880000B0). I am thinking that a few minor modifications if any will be required. I will let you know when I get them on the tractor. Thanks again for your help.
Picture of the new grill and right side panel. Had to remove the lower panel attachment pins as they are in a different location than the originals. Did some touch-up with Rustoleum Cherry spray paint. Versus welding the pins on in the correct location, I chose to modify the lower mount brackets by bending to hold the bottom of the side panels and adding 3/4" ID rubber hose over them to keep from scratching the side panels.

Good work!
I was able to get the grill from a Branson dealer in Kentucky, Cottrell Farm Equipment. They were able to order from the facility in Georgia. This one is P/N NTD610E000A9, it was a bit pricey at $650. It looks like this is the same one as your 4520. It is nice to have better dust protection and head lights though. The original one was pretty mangled up.
