Many thanks for the emblem, received it today!

I've a front emblem for that one if you want to change it. Not in perfect condition but much better than the one on yours

Did you paint the fenders yet, or will you wait and paint everything at the same time?

[Dutchman]

I will paint all at once, and the right fender haves also to be welded to.
And i'm not in a hurry to do the restauration.

[Dutchman]

It has been a while that i have done something on the tractor, in the passed time i have bought a set front weights,
a pair larger front wheels and a pair 38 Inch rear wheels, where i'm working on now (holidaytime).
The old rear wheels are rosted to much and are 34 inch so it was time for a upgrade with a pair IHC wheels.
So it is now time to remove the old paint and rost from the rear wheels and repaint them.

Picture from frontweights and larger front wheels.

Updates will follow very soon

[Mats i Myrhult]

Paint makes a lot for good looks and good preparation makes the paint look good a long time!

[Dutchman]

After 3 layers paint the left side rearwheel is ready, the hartplate is fitted with new bolts.

I'm now working on the right rearwheel.
This one takes much more work.
The hartplate holes for the bolts are worn out.
So those gonna be welded and after that job make new holes in it.

[Mats i Myrhult]

Any idea as to why the bolt holes were so worn?

[Dutchman]

Any idea as to why the bolt holes were so worn?

Yes, the previous owner abused the wheels with tractorpulling, and he has driven with lose bolts i gues.
But the problem is fixed and it will fit again like new (or better).

[Mats i Myrhult]

Tractor pulling and lose bolts.

[Dutchman]

Impressive dedication to the project! I will follow this.
What year is that that tractor?

It was made in 1975
Wow it is 40 years old now

[Mats i Myrhult]

Yeah, those were the days, eh?

[Dutchman]

Well the paint needs a day to get dry, so what to do next

The repaired rear fenders (forgotten to prime ) standing in the corner from the workshop,
and they could use some attention to i gues.
