Looking pretty darn good Jason... Is your assistant on a break or something??? :banghead:

[wh-jason 32]

Gene, she is always on break. LOL

Jason,

Looks great......you are really cranking that out fast! Like the other's said you had a fine looking machine to start with.

You will have to load that up this next fall and bring it to the meet/greet. You won't want to miss it and there will be plenty of members there to admire it first hand!

Keep up the good work! :banghead:

[wh-jason 32]

scott, i had sen some posts about your meet and greet, sounds fun. i will definately try to get up there, and bring my retired wheel horse dealer grandpa with me. he lives pretty close to you in silver lake.

[Gene_S 93]

It's going to be a good one Scott!!!

Looking great Jason... :banghead:

What paint are you using? looks good so far.

[wh-jason 32]

kelly, since i finally got this photobucket account i cant stop using it.

i get this paint at rural king or big r. its pretty inexpensive, and goes on real well.

Inspirational... I have a Workhorse 700 that I'm considering doing the same for. I redid the rims last year and got brand new tires... so if I did the tractor like you it could be parade worthy. Don't have the original engine though, sorry... Tecumseh HM80

Good luck!

[wh-jason 32]

steve, i got 3 of the wheels done tonite, hope to get them put on and the 4th done tomorrow nite. im trying to save my tires since they are the originals. the back ones are pretty well cracked on the inside so it shouldnt show too bad, the fronts are a little better. after the paint dries and i unmask them im gonna see how well they will clean up. i should have more pics late tomorrow or saturday morning. i ordered my decals from redoyourhorse on monday, hopefully they will come in tomorrow, but i imagine it will probably be first of the week. after i get this one done, and i can convince my wife, maybe ill start the raider 10 :banghead:

Looks really good for only 6 days work. Are you planning to rest on the 7th? Your 700 will truly be a glorious sight indeed, once it's wrapped in it's new vinyl. Don't stop now, keep up the great work. :banghead:

[wh-jason 32]

don, i wipe the old tires down with brake fluid. it really brings a nice shine to them.

here they are i just put them back on 20 minutes ago.

[just me 0]

[can whlvr 993]

brake fluid works good

That machine is beautiful!!!! Nice work!!!

[wh-jason 32]

got the decals in the mail today. just waiting on my throttle and choke cables to get here and find the correct motor...then shes done.

[AMC RULES 37,141]

Awesome! I told you the vinyl would put it over the top. Very nice work. :thumbs:

[wh-jason 32]

choke and throttle cables came in the mail today. got the dash mostly assembled tonite.

[Kelly 1,030]

Where did you get the dash decal?? something is not right about it.

[wh-jason 32]

got the dash decal from redoyourhorse.com, i didnt like the way it fit so i added the red stripe across the middle
