A few pics from home tonight against the cleaner concrete. Also had a nice rider on too! Couple more things to do to finish it, but I'm ready for the snow!

WOW - Chris that looks so sweet! Like others have said the black accents look great. Especially like the tool box black, and the engine pulley looks nice painted black too. Very nice tractor. The before and after is great.

Couple more additions on this 854. These pics are of approx. 85lbs of Stainless Steel plates left over from a job at the shop. I drilled, milled, and bolted them to the underside of the frame just under the motor.

These pics are of the lights I put on. I wired them to the run side of the ignition switch so I can't accidentally leave them on. I also painted the raised letters on the hood, and motor.

They are a little bigger than expected, but they light up the road as if you were in a car. Just waiting on the hood ornament from the plater to return.

Chris congrats, that came out looking nice. I really like the personal touches... making it 'your' machine!

Have a question about this pic below though... what are those rears??

They look like some killer soft soil/high traction R-1s. Got a brand/model on them?

Jason, those were mudder type tires I got off of John (Wallfish). They really didn't give me good snow traction, but sure do look cool. :banghead: John ended up getting them back from me, and put them on his Rat-rod. His tractor really gives them justice! Give him a PM, and he can give you more info on them. Thanks foir the compliments. :thumbs:

Thanks for all the compliments guys. I really appreciate it. :banghead:

I added a red tail light to my tractor. It comes on with the headlights.

Also added a reverse light too.

It is triggered off the transmission shifter. (still have to paint it black)

I can't take credit for the idea, but once I heard about it, I just had to do it. The lights are actually pretty bright when it's dark out. :thumbs:
