Single stage white was free so I'm using it and I already had some yellow too. Should be done later today or tomorrow and then I need to sandblast te frame and rear

Great job. Looking forward to seeing your progress.

Well my dad is hopefully painting some parts for me today. In going to buy a sand blasting hood this weekend so I can finish prepping my parts

Andrew_deaton 06-08-2012 10:00 PM

well got an update but no pictures yet. maybe tomorrow. I got my sand and my hood total cost was 45 bucks. So now ive only got around 300 in the tractor. its probably going to have around 400-450 when im all said and done. what do you think I could sell it for? I dont want to sell it after i finish but I want a bigger tractor. But for now all the white parts are sand blasted and im going to start on the frame tomorrow. maybe get the engine cover done monday after i get the right puller. By the way I found a mouse nest in my engine. No dead mice though.

Great job on the paint and free is a great price! :biggrin2: Heres a tip to remove the paint from the tires. Go to a Lowe's or HD or any hardware store and pick up a bottle of some stuff call Goof Off. Take that and put it on a rag and wipe it down. Gets the tires nice and clean and takes any gunk off that might be on it too. And if you should do another one take the tires and deflate them till you can almost break the bead and take masking tape and mask off around the rim. That way you dont have to take the tire off and worry about the tire guys scratching the new paint and keeps the paint from getting on the tires. :beerchug: Just thought it would be a helpful hint!

well i think im getting some agg tires for free and i should get all four. Also the seat is really bad and i think im getting a free seat also haha. My work had a kubota break down and they just bought 3 new john deeres to replace the kubotas so i should get any parts i want.

Todays progress
