Because everyone loves pictures!

Post by JMotuzick »

I bought this orignal back in March in boxes it was mostly sand blasted some parts had primer and the engine has some fresh black paint. I just need to paint the starter yellow!
It's buring off the never seize and high heat black in these pictures!
It's by no means a restoration but it's much nicer then primer!

Tim
Thank you but.....
There are a few things 10 feet and the camara hide!
This was painted with valspar cub cadet yellow and mtd cub cadet white, from rattle cans.
The frame had the repair in the normal spot and I left it. If you look the tractor has a bit of a tip to it lower on the right.... I didn't rebulid the engine or rear end the wire harness is used and many of the bolts are not ih. I did however use the restored ones when ever I could.

I have restored 3 tractors 100% and 2 more restored with powder and 2 more with rattle cans. Here are a few pictures from my other restorations.

wow! some museum quality stuff there- nice work. I love old stuff, seeing things like these so painstakingly redone is really neat.

I bought the 76 for my wife about 3 Octobers ago. It took me about a year, I blasted painted/powder coated the entire tractor. My wife did the decals!

Fantastic work! Gorgeous collection! I need a nice "O" badly! I wish I find one in good shape with all his part for a fair price in 2015! Is it to much asking? :roll:
