More painting! At least it's almost over lol. Got the front end painted and now drying. Also painted the rear hitch and pivot pin for the front axle. Didn't get a pic but the horse is now sitting on her own back legs. Also painted the front rims and got the tires mounted. Will be taking each wheel off one at a time, mask the tire and wet sand and recoat the rims probably next friday or saturday. The pictures are on my phone so will post right after this with the pictures.

Ughhh. Well this is how my tractor looks now. Had to repaint the frame because it came out pink. Having the same problem Geno is having. Painted it last night will be checking it after work today and see if it’s reds or pink.

After all the issues with the paint I got annoyed with the tractor. After a long break I’m back into it. Got a buffer and started buffing the tractor. Here’s the hood. Not quite dont but good enough for tonight. Also sent the rims off to be powder coated because I was tired of dealing with paint and they had a price I couldn’t refuse.

Got the rims back from powder coating. First time it’s been sitting on all four rims for the whole summer.
