Bring a tractor and I think it is free. I have not been charged ever.

So it has been a while since I did an update on this one. After the big show last year  Brennan wanted his tractor to be "shinny" so ... 10 mins after we unloaded the trailer he began to clean it up and then take it apart. Shortly after that he started to paint the frame and other parts. I started to do the body work to the sheet metal but then it got pushed to the side. Finally got back at it the last few weeks. Got the motor all cleaned up and painted. See pics.

Terry,

The Briggs came with it. It is a newer style I/C (Industrial/commercial) I think it stands for. The recoil I painted the screen red to match the color of the tractor.

It is not anything close to perfect however my son is proud of it!

Looks good to me and he should be proud of it too! I'm sure he'll put some miles on it at the show!

The seat is a custom leather seat made from some really nice leather compliments of someone "in the business" ...

That came out real nice Guys. Its about time for me to fire up Coles 8hp powered Burban. It hasn't been run in a very long time, at least a year?:confusion-shrug:  I know I haven't fired my Burban up since the end of last years BIG SHOW. Maybe we can all have a nice Burban ride at Zagray, I'd be willing to bet that I get pulled over first... 

Got the seat from someone in the biz? Now who can that be?:D

Yeah that would be good but a ride at the big show would be better:ph34r: ...

 

I need to change the front tires as these are pretty well shot. If I don't I can see them busting at the big show and then I will have to deal with that situation:blink:

We figured that the rims and tires needed some paint. Got the new front tires mounted up as the old ones were pretty dry rotted. She is about 99% done. Ready to ride it like he stole it...
