Made a little more headway on this project, the dash was in horrible shape with about 20 cracks and a ton of extra holes. The dash was also bent up pretty bad and had some previous welding done that I had to fix. There was an amp gauge in the dash just above the column but I welded it shut and relocated​ it to a better location, I also added a second hole which will be for the hour meter I ordered.

The hood still needs a little work but is looking really good.

Tim,
I would like to know if you are partially assembling it after priming, then paint it like they did at the factory.
So Tim, are you gonna make it, you think, for plow day with the 100?

I'm going to paint it in pieces and then assemble, I think I'm going to epoxy the inside of the engine tins and put them on to paint the engine in one piece. I hope to make it, I'm pushing as hard as I can without cutting corners. If everything goes right I will have it all in primer tomorrow night and will be painting all the yellow on Saturday and all the white on Sunday, that will give me a week to put Humpty Dumpty back together and get the other 3 tractors ready to go, I plan to bring 4 and hopefully come home with 3. Any body wanna buy a sweet 1050?
