The engine and the under hood parts were all painted with high heat paint. It looks different (and better) in person.

Thanks for all the comments. I am already looking forward to my next one, but I haven't found the right one yet.

Here's a pic of my entire "lineup" so far. The DA 1920 on the left is my running/working "parts tractor" for the other 2.

Nice work Kevin! I'm not sure mine looked that good from the factory.

One thing I would like to add. Do to a health problem, I could not get the hood assembly back together by myself. But a friend at my local dealer jumped right in to help. Thanks Adam.
