Not dying is a good goal. 

 

Always remember that the fumes from gasoline are FAR MORE DANGEROUS than the liquid itself.

 

You may want to just get another tank.

I knew it all when I was a teenager too, then reality sank in and discovered I had a lot to learn.

You would have a single pedal on the left.  You don't appear to have the lift mechanism either.

I'm going to sand and paint the hood today I got some rust olium regal red

[Joe leonardo 164]

The hood is primered I'm gonna paint it tomorrow, also found out it does in fact not have any of the brake linkage so I got a source that also the left foot rest is completely hacked out so I need to find a new one. I found one on eBay for 10 bucks but the guy hasn't gotten back to me

Did the Redsquare vendors have any of those parts?

Not everyone likes or appreciates the same things. 

Perhaps when you've got the tractor up n running it'll be more evident what its capabilities are.

Im restoring a John Deere A in my back yard and they think the wheel horse is gonna take my attention away from getting the Deere done even thought the WH is a school project, yet when I ask to paint the Deere (it's tore down in primer) they say no 🥲

That's what I've been using on mine. Rural King here didn't have any for a while - I was glad I had bought 4 or 5 cans when they did.

There is no mechanical brake on a Charger. When you step on the clutch peddle it only returns the hydro lever to the neutral position which causes the tractor to stop.

I know I checked it out, but it's all not there

@Joe leonardo,

 

Just a thought…

I have found the more pics I post of what I am doing does two things…

 

1. Peaks members interest in what I am doing.

2. Helps members understand what I am talking about.

3. Shows members what I am talking about.

 

I have found that pics also help members educate me on the proper terminology for what I am talking about. Sometimes I may call something something different than they do, and that is fine, but a pic helps clarify what we may be talking about.

 

Besides…
