Been a while since my last post but here's a few pictures of my progress.

Rear end and tower installed, engine installed (easier to get to front oil pan bolts with front axle out), front axle installed, remade head tin. Will add others as time allows. Taking advantage of "stay at home" orders to change rear deck contractor PT boards to something of a better quality. Paint parts, work on deck, next day paint more parts, back to deck. Get to work on the tractor and also keep the wife happy! Hope this thing runs when I get done. If not, it comes apart again for a rebuild. When I had the oil pan off, it looked real clean and tight inside. It's got a .020 piston in it so someone's been inside it before, just hope they knew the basics! The head tin was in sad shape so I made a new one. Should be good enough to direct the air where it needs to go.
