Lars 526 #351 Posted February 19, 2013 Well i have delivered the org rim to the 551 to a buddy of me. That have started a new sandblaster shop (big one) he blast semi truck frame's etc.. So he is gone sandblast them and put epoxy on them, so i can paint dem the same color as the rim on the suburban, and im gona look for one front rim to match the other rim that i have on it. i have 2 diffrent now.. and ill hate it LOL.. when i can get a hold of it i will blast both of them and get epoxy on them too and paint them when ill do the rear rim's. Then ill just need to get me a sett of greease caps to the front rim... Thanks Lars Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anglo Traction 761 #352 Posted February 19, 2013 I also have the same problem with 2 different Rims I'm working on Lars. I have to alter the Hub Tube length to match them up. No chance of finding another Rim the same. So I understand why your unhappy with your odd ones. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Racinbob 11,094 #359 Posted May 8, 2014 I'll bump this back up again. I'm sure there's some folks that haven't seen it. After hearing about it when we all were on Skype I just looked it up today. What a great read! And what an incredible build on that tractor Lars. It inspires me even more on my 400 rebuild. My talent will run out well before yours though. Simply amazing! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anglo Traction 761 #361 Posted August 8, 2014 Why not just 'Pin it' so it stays at the top where it deserves to be placed? . Hi Lars 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
