51Chevy 66 #1 Posted November 18, 2013 I'm sure some of you guys have seen my post for parts before but I'm finally starting to restore my 64 854. This tractor was my dads uncles who bought it new it was sitting since we had it we got it in 2006. It rusted until last year when i decided to do something with it we got it running and I used it over the summer. I've been saving up parts and money So now its in our garage somewhat apart. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
