First I want to thank everyone who is given guidance and advice on bringing this tractor back to life. It has been at least 16 years, probably more, since she has moved under her own power. Needless to say, I was extremmely excited when she finally gave up the ghost and roared back to life, no muffler, and pegged out the oil pressure gauge!. My second delight as I was backing her back into the shop area, i pulled back on the t/a and she slowed down, and I popped it forward and she jumped.
I hope you can feel my enthusiasm! This is the 1st tractor I bought after I caught the bug. It has been 4 years in the making! I work construction out of town and its to damn hot to work on em in the PHX sun during the summer. This is by far my biggest undertaking as far tractors go. I will post some photos after I get the sheetmetal back on her. Once again THANK YOU

Not a whole lot in life outside of my wife and daughter, gives me more enjoyment than bringing an old tractor back to life again. Congrats!
