After all that work I'm not sure I would want to use it for anything more than pulling a parade float. With all the work you put into it I'm surprised you didn't put a pin stripe on the wheels. It looks great.

My goodness, what a lot of work! I got tired just looking at all the pictures of the progress. I thought the original tractor looked pretty good for it's age. Did it need much mechanical repair in addition to the cosmetics? Is this going to be a show piece or are you going to use it for normal tractor work? If the latter, the first scratches are going to hurt - a lot!

Your choice of wheels really jazz's up the look of the tractor. I bet there's quite a story in how they came about, for the right size and bolt hole pattern, offset, etc. That makes the project even more interesting to me, in that you didn't go for a total "factory" restoration. Would love to hear a little background on the project - "The rest of the story", as Paul Harvey used to say...

That's a pile of work but what a gem it turned out to be. Tip my lid to you for doing such a fine job. That's a restoration that will be tough to beat. :thumbsup:
