Almost done

Its coming together good. I bet my date for prom that it would be done by Friday. then I had a problem with the wiring so Jake just did it. we started to put the front tires on but i lost the lugg nuts for one tire so now i have to paint them and then we will have all the tires on. last night Jake split his thumb open on the hydralic pump while cleaning it. then i bondo the front grill peice on the body pannles so it would get rid of a huge dent.

Well this weekend I was trying to put the motor back on the tractor. first I had to change the rear seal. Then I was putting the flywheel on then it got off balance so the motor fell off the chains. the motor is ok but it got scratched.

This weekend I was painting the tractor. I got about half the parts painted and tonight I will be pouting the motor back on the frame. I think I will be dune pining the tractor by the end of the week.

Well I got the final cote of paint on the tractor last night. I learned one thing to ware gloves when you paint. This week and next week I will try to post a blog every day about my progress.

Jake and I spent the whole day working on my project. We cleaned the shop so we didn't have dust in the shop. You don't want dust in the shop because it will get on the wet paint and leave a rough finish. Then we built a paint booth that has a door and an air filter in it. Then we got one coat of primer paint on the motor and the rear end. I did a touch up this morning so we can do a final coat tonight.
