Honestly when dad & I decided to re-do the 560 at the Heritage Tractor Drive back in 2010 (http://www.heritagetractoradventure.com) we both agree it need to be nice.... dad would be impressed. check out some of the last parts that came in today... very cool looking wire clips.

"That boy..I swear !!".......... "That old tractor ain't worth all that"....... Bet he's got a real grin on his face after he says it though !! That 2012 560 is really going to be a show stopper...congrats !! [Reply]  [No Email]

I was little worried about it... but honestly all the hard work and yes ($$) has really paid off, the fit & finish is amazing. Best of luck... trick to all these projects is to make it yours!
