You have way better weather there than up here in the PNW. Looks great but we could not do that outside other than maybe July or August.

you are right about that. Glad to hear that the yanmar is comingt back together. Cant wait to see the finished product.:thumbsup:

Well got the 2000 running this morning before the rain. Also cleaned up wire harness with new electrical tape, and made up new Battery cables. More pics to come.

Question, does anybody know what the rubber plug on the rear of the dash was for?

Looks nice and clean--------for now----:D back when I first re-painted my 1700 I'd be sure I would knock the dirt from my shoes before climbing aboard then after getting it a bit dirty while working it I'd rinse it back off, I found myself taking better care of my trator than my 18-k dollar truck:cool: just this halloween I used it to tow the hay trailer 1200 ft to the creek and back 3 times, was very dark that night and the headlights are not very bright, it had rain 3 days before this event and I had walked the the ground before dark and felt firm enough, the next morning I went out to clean up from the party and to find my tractor covered in mud,:confused2: twas a very proud moment!
I thought back of that night while hauling my 13 ft x 5 trailer with 8 large bales of hay, 6-7 adults & 8 children aboard while coming back up a 20% incline hill and never even slide, well the tractor didn't but one of the guys ridding on the trailer said it was all over the place:laughing:, my wife would not allow me to rince off the tractor & trailer in the lawn said would make a large mud hole, so I let it dry to crust until today it then fell right off as I drove to the barn,;) anyway as I see it now, clean is in fact nice to look at :thumbsup: but the fun comes from getting it dirty:D
