Raider 12 Refresh

This one won't take long and won't make dust so it is next. No restore and not much painting here. I already have the correct decals for it, it needs some wiring fixed, the correct throttle set up installed, the RF wheel is wallowed out and no good, and a few other things.

1st pic is one he sent me before I bought it. The tires and weights may end up on dad's old 414 with a set of 520 rear wheels. I still use that tractor for everything here in the Spring, Summer and Fall except mowing and it would be nice to have them on there.

Took a little longer than I thought, the rear tires were full of fluid.

I finally have the rears off dried out and done and a correct front wheel set ready.

Just took the front tri ribs off of this thing and they are filled with fluid too. Somebody was serious about weight on this thing...

The rims going back on it got painted this morning.

Nick picked up his B100 this morning and after some shop cleaning and organizing I'm back here again. She is shining up pretty good.

Well here come the might as wells...

The tower was broken at the bottom left so had to pull the step to fix it, might as well blast the step and put new treads on it. If you're doing the left might as well do the right, then there was a bracket broken on the right that holds the step and belt guard so the guard has to be pulled to fix that, might as well clean up the ugly bracket someone welded on and blast the belt guard...

Might as wells and tractor are all done. She looks pretty good to be 50 lol.
