Rainy day project

grandpa Love · Jan 14, 2020

Been raining in Alabama for a couple days. I got a wood stove in the woodworking shop but not in the tractor barn. Been working on what I can by the fire! Farmall A rims were ate up....a buddy fixed em! I got them ground smooth and insides primed and painted.

The centers are painted as well.

Fenders had a lot of holes. I never used bondo before......

Amazing how heavy that thing is!!

It's a nice '44 A. Got a sickle mower for it, will pick that up in February.

Looks like you are going to wind up with a slick little A. They are handy little tractors.

Really nice Kevin! Some seat time will help you get the feel of its offset weight.

You've got a talented "buddy"......you want to treat him real good!

I'd take the N over the A any day. I mow with mine, at a remote location, but hate the hand start and having to be a monkey to get on and off. I just bought a JD 1145 front deck machine to replace the A. Every one I've seen had the wheel weight on the other side.
