| Adam it looks excellent! Did you go through the transmission and BGB before assembly? |

| The transmission was rebuilt and the BGB reviewed. The rear axle was also completely replaced and a new Wheel Horse axle was swapped in. |

Excellent. You definitely don't want to reassemble and then get a problem! The BGB being 100% is key, as that's the hardest part to get to when a problem occurs. |

| I've been very lucky with this tractor. My uncle bought it for my dad so that we could plow the driveway in the winter so that my uncle wouldn't have to drive over. My dad wasn't thrilled with the notion and the day my uncle brought it over it wouldn't even start. $120 later we had a rebuilt generator and regulator. She still woulnt run right and we would have to take the cleaner off and put our hand on it to have a extra choke. Then first gear would be stuck. It was issue after issue. Thankfully my other uncle thought it would be a good idea to take it apart. His bodyshop provided all the paint material and time. This is where she stands now. I've been blessed by my family with all the help they have given me. The tractor has been at my orinigal uncles house since august without a complaint. Though I woulnt expect one, his garage is 100+ feet deep and 50 feet wide and has 25 ft ceilings. He is able to drive his excavators in under his house if he wants to. Right now he has a Farmall Super M and F20 in there which will be our next projects. He even bought a hydraulic lift for lawnmowers to make our work easier. I'm living the dream. :). And my girlfirend still loves me too lol |

It is certainly coming along nice for sure, will be a nice tractor when done. Sounds like you are indeed living a dream. If your girlfriend is a lingerie model who is also a chef as a hobby,,,, well I don't even want to hear about it. LOL! |

| Thank you for the compliments... If it wasnt for sites like this and the ability to throw ideas around, I would have been completely lost on this project, and my dad would have buried the pieces in the woods.! |
