Looking for a painter

Looking to see if anyone would be interested in painting a case 411. I'M gone 5-6 days a week and don't have the time to do it myself and don't want to take to a over priced body shop to have it done. I'm located in NE Wisconsin.

Kenny,
Unless you have 2 grand set aside, you may be in the same boat as I. Do you have sheet metal work on top of that? If you can draw on some guidance with painting her yourself, you can save some $$$ . Are you using single stage urethane. Stop by the paint and restoration blog on this website. Lots of help there.

I looked into having a painter paint just my hood and grill and fenders on my SO last year. I had them prepped except for a little work on the hood. The best price I found was $1800.00, ouch! I painted it myself and I'm not a painter. It turned out not to bad. Dick

Hi, Ken. I would be interested in painting it. I'm live towards the Oshkosh/FDL area. Send me a email of what you need done and we can see if it will work out. Pick up and delivery is not a problem either. I've painted five tractors. This past winter I painted a Case IH 695 w/2255 loader at Weyers Equipment where I work. You can check it out at weyersequip.com.

Dick Looks like it turned out great !! You really did a beautiful job on it what kind of paint did you use? I'm getting close to getting my SC back together.

I used Van Sickle paint and a lot of sanding and wire brushing !!
