Cab & Blower
I went and picked up my cab and parts snowblower last night. I paid $180 for the Sims cab and a 450 blower. I thought it was a good deal. The cab just has some surface rust, but I plan on stripping it and painting it before I put it on the tractor. The blower has a bad fan, but the skid shoes and shave plate where like new. So new that the skid shoes still got the black powdercoat on the bottoms.

I finally got the cab mounted to the tractor. It took more work than I thought but it turned out looking good. I had to make some filler panels because this cab was meant for a newer style tractor and the weatherstripping wouldn't seal around the hood.

I also decided that I had to give this cab a quick rattle can paint job to cover up all the rust, old white paint and to seal my patch panels. These cabs are so heavy that I wasn't about to take it off the tractor again so I decided to just paint it mounted on the tractor and mask everything off. First I got rid of all the loose paint and rust with the DA and gave it a good wash. Then I masked everything off.

After a few hours I ended up with this. Not perfect, but it looks much better than the brite white and rust. http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/...ps3b5f57d0.jpg http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/...ps7cd532ef.jpg |
