Got all my new lighted gauges mounted in today. They register better than the old ones. The old gauges were only about 5 years old but the water temp gauge wasn't even moving, I thought I had no thermostat installed. When I got the new gauges installed I ran the tractor for about 15 minutes and the temp came up to 160 degrees, dropped back to 140 and then came up to 160 and stayed until I shut off the tractor. I still have a new 188 degree thermostat on order that I'm going to use along with new radiator hoses so I should be in good shape for winter.
Old Gauges with the Volt meter mounted after the 12 volt conversion.

The Temperature gauge I like a lot better because it is more detailed.
That's not a crack on the Volt meter, it's a shadow from the garage light. I had to go check after I uploaded the pictures and saw it at first.
Lights on. The RPM gauge also had a plugged light hole in the back, I took out that rubber plug and installed a light. Though it's not as bright but it is lit.

Paint is another, the modern acrylic enamels are great for resistance to grease and fuel stains, retaining their shine and they last forever; unlike enamels and lacquers . Still another is the alternator. No doubt using the original generator keeps the tractor pure, but for thos
