Hi stigian, I took the plate that holds the rectifier on which had not faded cleaned it up then took it to a auto paint shop and had some mached up. That was the very fist time i had used a spray gun, my spray booth was my greenhouse :USA: , it did get a bit hot in there but i stuck at it, and i still have a red greenhouse :wh: .

That looks superb!! I have just managed to buy some rear weights like yours, they look good.

Do I spy another red beast in the garage........?

Hi simon,

Yes its my C-121 i have had it for about 10 years now, thats what got me into the wheelhorses. I use it for work to cut an orchard for about two hours a month, and it does not get a lot of hammer :wh: and it gets wll looked after , I think i would have been lost with out it when putting the C-141 back together trying to find where some of the parts went :). All the best kevin :USA:

Hi Kevin, Just to add my compliments to you on an Excellent Job! :) .

I'm impressed with the Re-worked Front Spindles/Hubs.

Are your Rear Tyres 23 x 10.50 x 12" ? . I've just ordered some, but was not sure about Rim overhang.

Regards .

Just a short video of the C-141 running, 99% done. the rattle noise is the rain cap it needs a bit of adjustment..
