8050C Branson, Branson 2400, 8N Ford, Round Fender John Deere 110, 3 60" ZTR mowers, a bunch of ride on mowers, 8' Brush hog , 15' Bat wing
This has been a year long project. I completely disassembled the tractor, sandblasted all of the parts, powder-coated the frame, axle, brackets and all other parts that I could. All of the sheet metal parts were painted and clear-coated.

Great looking rig, I had 2 old Ropers over the years and loved them. Hi/Lo range tranny was a plus.

EXCELLENT work!

I still have my dad's 1972 Roper, built for Sears, with a 15HP Briggs.
Not as nice looking, but still in excellent condition.
