Speedex basket case

Hhhmmmmm..... Man I dunno.

Your rig. Your choice, of course.

 

I could go either bare metal or black.

 

Either way it's gonna be a wicked pretty one.

I did get the email and thank you for that. I think I can figure it out tomorrow.

 

Yes the shifter itself. I think the internal end is worn a bit.

Thanks again @wildman .Everything in the trans works great but the shifter falls passed the shifting tangs when in 1st. Then you can't find a gear at all

[Oldskool 6,643]

Thanks for all the help @wildman  I think the shifter problem is solved and the spring is on the pulley brake.

[Oldskool 6,643]

A little more progress.

[Oldskool 6,643]

Well they say that 3rd time is a charm. This is the 3rd seat I have thought about putting on it. I'm sticking with it. As ornate as it is, it looks older than the others. I think it will make the tractor look older seeings how the Speedex is quite basic looking to begin with.
