Awesome job. :D I hope my 551 restore comes out that good. Did you brush the frame and tranny, or rattle can it? I'm having an internal dilema :hide:

sprayed every thing base/clear coat, whats is the dilema :hide: I can spray them and install in about two hours no waiting for paint to dry and if I scratch :D them, there easy to touch up and the cost is not as bad as it seems if you think cost to looks/ durability your way ahead, its the first time that gets $, you just cant buy just what you need you have to buy bulk, pint, quart, gallon, that the cost part, I can spray a whole round hood tractor with about a quart of base and 3/4 guart of clear.

Looks really good Joebob. :hide: Base coat/ clear coat is the way to go for looks and durability. A little more expensive but well worth the money.

Hey Joe!!! I just realized when I posted these pics in another thread that your 551 is visible.

This is what the tractor above looked like at the end of August 2008 when Joe took it home!
