Fire_fighter625 103 #15 Posted July 29, 2015 Thanks everyone! I am strongly considering just a clean up. Maybe changing the dash, as suggested. I love old originals. Every mark and scar tells a story. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RedRanger 1,468 #19 Posted August 2, 2015 (edited) Great job. Nice tractor. $300 is a very good deal.I'd suggest removing and cleaning under the engine tins. Looks like it's been run hot based on the burnt paint on the top tin. When I got my 867, the cooling fins were packed with dirt.
