I always thought the reproduction headlight lenses looked pretty good even though they're overpriced. But... Seeing this broken original makes me sad.

Well, my wonderful Granddaughters decided to pitch in!!!

After an uneventful and slow day at work, I got to work on the C-141 again. I checked out the other rear hub and gave it the same treatment as yesterday minus the swapping out of parts. It turns out I swapped the hub when I built the tractor last year. A bit of a clean and that went back together like the other side. I also after being inspired by @sqrlgtr‘s post decided to drill out and spruce up the headlight bucket on my tractor. It came off great but in the course of cleaning out and polishing up, I broke out the vent on the right side. A little JB weld and a few hours and I’ll be back in business. The black on the lens should hide it so it won’t be noticeable unless you take the lens off. i plan on spraying the bucket with some bright semi reflective silver paint I have, to brighten it up. I plan on replacing the rivets with flat head bolts so if I need to do maintenance etc.., I can pull it all out with two bolts. Back at it tomorrow after work to finish it up.

Possibly an Oliver plow.. I’m leaning more towards a farmall harrow though.

Just to pass on some updated information for isavetractors, their inventory has been acquired by Lil Red Barn in Harrisonburg VA lilredbarn.net they were both buying from same manufacture and Lil Red Barn was already selling most of the same parts under there LRB Brand for the K and M Series Kohler and Onan Parts that were sourced at same manufacture that isavetractors used. They just got 2 trucks with 16 pallets full of parts shipped from from isavetractors warehouse on 7/25/26 and they are working it into their inventory at their warehouse. I have been buying from Lil Red Barn for many years. He said if you are looking for parts to give him a call and he will make it available for purchase, it is just a lot of parts to go through 540-434-9852 or email at lilredbarn.net@gmail.com
