With questions lately I thought I'd give a little update.I thought in 6 months time I would be done but at the rate I'm going it will be 6 years for this restoration job. The tractor is all in pieces except for one stubborn front spindle assembly and removing the front tires from the rims. I have dismantled my 2 parts tractors too except for the front ends. Tried out the manual tire changer and it worked great for me. Have my paint supplies and some new parts ordered(seals and bearings from Jacks). Will shop for tires soon. Need to sand blast the larger items. Engine has been overhauled but not test run. Have the new seat,arm rest and back pad. My friend brought me 13 pair of stainless side plates for the grille. Maybe I will need to get more tractors. No, I have an early B 10 to do next if the man upstairs gives me enough time. Thanks again to all the great help from all at this great site. ^

Sounds like your project is going as slow as mine (3012H). It's sounds as though I'm a little further as I have both doners all in pieces and have sand blasted the frame and have the a BGB rebuilt and the Vickers about done. Shouldn't be to long till those two pieces are together so I can roll it around easier.

Surprise,surprise,surprise!!! I purchased a camera but it may be a few days to see pics as I will be gone a couple days from home and then for me to figure out the system. I have seen directions posted so be patient and then I can post in the show and tell forum, huh?
