I don't know.....I've been at this for something like 2 months or better and I blew past being **** in my fist couple of weeks and althought I'm tickled with how it's comming out......it is just a tractor after all and I do have weekends where it's hard to get rollin' on it. I get to a point where I just want to get it back together and play!!!

Your right, it is just a tractor. But you'll have a really sharp tractor when your done with it. I think you doing a really nice job and say "keep it up"! /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Re: dressin\' up an old YM187

I let a few things go on mine too, mostly because I wanted to get it back to work! But I'm proud of the improvements anyway.
Yours is looking great, Whiskey - keep it going, you'll get it back together soon. Of course, after you do, you'll find 10 things you'll wish you'd done differently, but...................
Who cares?..... by then you'll be back having fun and getting in some good seat time!

Nice job, I like all the pictures. I'll bet you ready to get it back together, but just think how nice it will look. You have done a great job so far, wish I knew how to paint like that. Keep the pictures rolling!

Belive it or not.......this is the fist time I have ever used an air gun to paint with, heck before I started this I didn't even own a compressor!

There were plenty of times in the learning curve that I thought I was sanding off more paint that I was sprayin' on!

Sure is nice of you to take the time to post the pictures. Much appreciated. It looks great so far, and I'm looking forward to seeing it back together (although I imagine not as much as you are.).

Re: dressin\' up an old YM187

Whiskey, Seeing you restore this tractor makes me want to run out and get a yanmar just for fun! Your project looks great! Can't wait to see the final product, but then it would be over, so I guess waiting is more fun!
