VERY good progress tonight... great help from my friends.
2pt is complete, all clips, pins etc.
Springs are on pedals
Wiring is done, other than installing rear lights
Front hoods on and look sharp
Tomorrow night guy who did the hoods is coming over to "shine" them up, cant wait, air brush "stuff", install emblems, etc. We are also putting on the fenders.

| Come over and "shine" them up he says. Anymore shiny and your reflection is going to slip off. Tractor looks outstanding! |

| I heard that "only going to church on Sunday" tractors needed just enough bolts to hold the wheels on. Better take one out on each side. LOL!
Outstanding work, she looks great with her skin on. |

| I was going to mention the toolboxes, but someone beat me to that. My Grandpa had a 560 with those same toolboxes, I was wondering if those were IH or not. |

| I like the K&M step tool box. It is "period correct" for the tractor. In fact, K&M got thier "start" making such a tool box by the thousands and then expanded into seats and more.... |
