5020 Restore Update

I finish the 5020 that I asked questions about earlier. Thanks to all that posted and helped out. I used the directions from Mitchissippi that he gave much earlier about which primers and sanding.
I also tried filling the casting halves with spot putty. This worked OK, I think it will get better the more I work with it.
I removed just enough of the front axle to slide the rim off with it warm. However the front wheels were looser that I liked, so I add the axle caps.
The rear tires and rims are new, along with the muffler and seat. The front tires and rims are original. I used Armor All wipes on all tires and like the results. All the parts are from Dakota toys.

Looks good, nice work. Gave my son one of those when they came out, don't know what became of it. Saw the newer version several years ago and couldn't resist, similar but not the wheatland fenders.
