Daddy Don 907 #1 Posted March 31, 2016 This was started by my son and it was not finished when he left for the Bahamas. I decided to pick up where he left off... Here are a few pics, some from when Steve was working on it and then the finishing touches that I have done. Another C-125 brought to life!!! 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 63,201 #2 Posted March 31, 2016 Fantastic work! "too bad" your son had to go to the Bahamas... I'm sure it would be a drag to go visit him and show him pictures of your work... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daddy Don 907 #3 Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) He just got a knee replacement this last week so I have him here for about another six weeks. I did spend fifteen days in the Bahamas doing some fishing for tuna and other fish had a great time. He has his own boat so it only cost a little money for fuel. It was great.

redone 45 #11 Posted April 1, 2016 105 1980. I just finished my 105 after about two years of gathering parts. this takes a while due to contacts to makeup wiring harness, some welding, and just taking time.I am not even done. still have the mower deck to start... are you going to sell it now? I am not interested, but the amount of time just cant get that back in returns.. just a hobby. Bill Iowa Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daddy Don 907 #12 Posted April 1, 2016 Not for sale. Redone take you time and any tractor you do and you will not want to sell any of them. Thanks Terry how are you coming on all your projects. Need to get down and see you and your brother one of these days. Steve is here from the Bahamas. He had to get a complete knee replacement. He will be here for about six weeks.

Got it from one of Gary's buddies out at Little Axe. The good part is, I think $100 might be what he gave me for the deck, a couple of years ago, So I guess I got it for free!
