rustyoldjunk 127 #1 Posted October 19, 2014 (edited) I haven't drug any horses home for a few months. Been busy with other things but here is one I couldn't pass up. Done a little trading with a buddy,my Gilson YT for this Work Horse GT1848. It's in disguise with a different paint job and the wrong hood but it's mostly just cosmetic issues,the tractor seems pretty solid. I am going after it tomorrow. If it is in pretty good shape like I believe I will have to chase down a correct 300,400 series or Work Horse hood and maybe even give it a repaint. If I paint it I will buy decals too. I am getting the original wheels and tires with it. Edited October 19, 2014 by rustyoldjunk 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Martin 2,131 #4 Posted October 19, 2014 just an fyi and most wouldn't care about this, but the seat pan also would need replacing with a workhorse pan if you want it all 'workhorse'..... that pan is a 3,4,500 series pan, the workhorses didn't have the lip along the rear bottom edge..... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rustyoldjunk 127 #6 Posted October 19, 2014 Thanks Martin,That's is another interesting fact that I didn't know. I doubt I will mess with the pan though,its close enough for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bmsgaffer 2,043 #7 Posted October 19, 2014 I have a (louvered) hood from a 520 for sale. Its painted flat black and in really good shape. Just a little surface rust at some seems on the underside. PM me if you are interested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rustyoldjunk 127 #8 Posted October 19, 2014 I don't think a 520 hood will work,will it,bmsgaffer ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
varosd 1,185 #9 Posted October 19, 2014 the 500 series hood will not fit since it had the "dash" for the lights. you can use any 300/400 series hood. It didn't come with louvers. the seat pan is indeed not the same as the later 300/400/500 series. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bmsgaffer 2,043 #10 Posted October 20, 2014 Ahh yes. I dont have any other tractor from the newer series so I didn't think about the "dash light" cutout. Sorry about that! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rustyoldjunk 127 #13 Posted October 21, 2014 Thanks guys. I knew the 500 series hood was a no go because of the dash. Salty,I would love to seem some pictures of the factory black Work Horse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
