Here it is in its beautiful new coat of blue and orange.

I think I will nick name it "Sleeping Beauty" because it has slept for a very long time and it sure is beautiful!

Here are the hood name plates. I think the orange is in the proper place.

Thanks for looking. Dave!

Very nice work Dave. when you get to painting the front grilles they should be Silwer paint colour. MJ

Hi Dave The tractor is looking really nice and will be as good as new when it is finished. I was also wondering what you did about the seat that you asked about before did you get one or make it fit like I said?.

Dandy Dave · Jun 15, 2008

Major, I haven't got to fabricating the pieces yet but it is my intention to make the seat as you said. I just wish someone had the capability to post a photo of the bottom so I can see what the latch assembly looks like. I can fabricate almost anything but would like to make it as the original otherwise I am only guessing. Thanks for asking, Dave!

Your right, I have a brocher here that shows the grills in silver. I already went and painted them orange without thinking about it. At least it is easily changed. Thanks, Dave!

Hi Dave Thanks for the reply on progress with the tractor I have a seat that I found in the junk pile this weekend that has the mounting bracket you need.I can Make anything but am technically challenged on computers I will try and get some pictures and someone to help down loading it for you. leave it with me for a few days.Are you in the U.S or Canada by any chance as I might even consider sending you the bracket in the mail.
Regards Robert

Robert, I am in the US. I would gladly pay you for the seat from the junk pile and shipping charges just to beable to get the parts off of it to install them on my new seat. I notice that the privet messages is not working. Call me at 518-325-7610 and reverse the charges if you wish. I am in eastern New York next to Mass and Conn. Thanks Dave!
