Got a chance to do some painting in the CBS paint booth today.
Got a lot of the blade and track carriages into paint, but need to pull it ahead tomorrow and paint the rest of the track component that paint couldn't get to today. After getting the rest of the Case power red on the chassis I will have to mask of the power red parts and then run the Federal yellow on the body. The hood, nose and grill pieces are at the local sand blasters.
In case you don't remember, a friend brought me this dozer after it suffered an engine fire. Having a heck of a time finding a radiator repair shop in the area to recore the melted radiator. The engine is fine, but all electrical components and hydraulic hoses are trash.
Once all the paint is on, I will rewire and install new/salvaged electrical components including used distributor lights seat cushions, decals, etc. Also having a real problem finding a replacement mechanical fuel pump, as CNH no longer supplies them. Also looking for a MS carb. Everything melted in the old one.
