Cub Cadet

Lots is going on in the run up to my first show of the year. 
 

 
The bonnet has been sandblasted
 

 
There was quite a few rust pits hence all of the filler
 

 
Trackrods have been added and stainless steel nuts and bolts have now replaced the old. 
 

 

 
Back on all four
 

 

 
Hoodstand back on with the new decal
 

 
The front grill, wiring loom and decal now in place 
 

 

 
The new light switch that I turned from a photo of the original to match what was on the tractor. 
 

 
Nearly there now, just got the seat, fenders, bonnet and then a few little pieces but I'm very happy with it! 

You'll have to give me some lessons.

Thanks Chris, I'm really pleased with it, especially since I have never picked up a spray gun before I started the resto

What a cracking job you're doing, lad. Well done.

I'm getting lots done now that I've finished school  
 
The engine has been mostly reassembled now
 

 
The hood that was ready for the scrap bin has been patched up the best we could, at least there is metal there now, with a bit of filler it should look ok. 
 

 
With thanks to the warm weather today I got lots more painting done and some parts got reassembled  
 

 

 

iv never seen such a great paint job done with rattle cans......absolute credit to you..

Thanks Chris.
 
 
Thanks Norm.
 
 
Ta muchly paul.
 
 
Thanks Ewan.
 
 
You did have a rather large grin on your face Norm
 
Today has been exhausting.... Yep, it's sort the pipes day
 

 
 
Once all the extras for the non working flame/smoke making system had been removed the pipes looked a lot cleaner.
 

 
 
Only these two holes to sort out..
 

 
 
That's better, just the welds to clean up..
 

 
 
Out came a spare muffler so I could measure out and make something I've been planning to for a long time..
 

 
 
Before the photo's a big thank you to Nigel for helping out with the exhaust wrap, a nasty itchy job that left us with itchy black stained hands!  So thanks again mate
