Remember that since you have done this for several years now once you sell it you may want to get back into the sport again and the have to buy another one and start all over again. Do you really want to do that. Just think it over and make sure you want to sellit is all i am saying. Good luck Greg [Reply]  [No Email]

Just remember to wear rubber gloves and used a terry towel it covers better i think. It also works good on the axels too. Hope you have good luck with it. [Reply]  [No Email]

If I ever restored another tractor Id have them black slick ceramic coat it like Ive seen, that lasts a longggggggggg time... Sorry, Not much of the manifold in the pic but its the best one I had John T Untitled URL Link [Reply]  [No Email]

Now that I'm busy and we travel a fair amount Ive got lazy and am ashamed to say I only take it to one big show a year. I think this may be my last year to show and will just sell it. Ive had a lot of fun and its been a good ride (been going to shows and/or showing over 20 years) but Ima just gonna take the RV and go and visit and look at others tractors. John T [Reply]  [No Email]
