Hi gang;
After months of blood (skinned knuckles), sweat, tears of rage & frustration, bad language, and vast sums of money (dare not look at my Visa statement & bank statements & cash payments) its finally finished.
If things could go wrong - they did (often several times), it ended up as a TOTAL nut & bolt restoration. Finished it the day before we moved down to Wales, paint was still sticky ! Its in storage now back where we used to live for a few months. Cheers David

Well done David, nice to see you have painted the grilles the right colour and not Peter Love Orange. Long way to bring it to the Newark tractor show in November but we do have a cup for the furthest travelled exhibitor. MJ

Very nice. I know that you've traveled a long rough road to get there, you tell us was it worth it?
Must have been 'cause I think I see a Dexta in your future.

Shouldn't the rims be blue and the rest of it red?

Just kidding. Looks great. Fine job of restoring it.

Nice job. Looks Great. Has to be worth it, or it will seem so when the knuckles heal.

Awesome job, and good to see you used the farmall red wheels too. That way, you can show that on the Farmall board and be politically correct. Seriously, Great Job, and enjoy those super photos of "the continent". Harley
