Restoration Pictures

Pretty nasty day here in GA so I figured I would snap a few pics and share them. This first one is of the sheet metal for a IH-1066 we are restoring for a customer.

Nice pictures, thanks for sharing. Do you do much restoring type work?

Thanks guys. That 1066 is a big boy! He has a chrome up-stack for the exhaust that is amazing. We are shooting it with two coats of clear and putting a factory style canopy on it. When we get done I will be sure to include some more pics. And yes, we do a fair amount of restoration projects. Right now we have these tractors in the shop for restoration;

IH1066
John Deere Model G
2 Massey Ferguson 255's (with the big motors)
Ford 600
Ford 8N

Again, thanks for the comments...I'll pass them on to the painter! /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Restoration is a great service to provide. It makes some money (probably not a lot), and it saves old iron that might end up rusting into a lump in the back forty. A win all around.
