 Thought I would share this picture of my 960 project. I plowed and disced 4 acres of heavy clay with it on Sunday and it pulled great. It is not a show tractor jut a good worker. This week I will put the drawbar hanger and draw bar on as well as a seat cover...that pan is too cold. -paul |

| Like it a lot! Also like that old Benz setting behind it! Is it a diesel or a gasser? |

| | thank you all for the responses. it is nice share with those who have an appreciation for the work that went into it. the Mercedes is a 1977 300D with 5 cyl diesel non-turbo. It is my daily driver when I have a need for one. I started working on MB diesels when I was 8 or 9 and have been hooked ever since. -paul |

| Very nice. Love the RC's. Wouldn't mind putting a wide front on one of my RC's. You must be down south because up north still plowing snow. 27 days til spring and can't wait to get in the dirt.Kirk |

| Nice looking tractor. You did a good job. Pretty wide on the front axle,..I assume it adjusts down some. |
