I'm sure some of you guys have seen my post for parts before but I'm finally starting to restore my 64 854. This tractor was my dads uncles who bought it new it was sitting since we had it we got it in 2006. It rusted until last year when i decided to do something with it we got it running and I used it over the summer. I've been saving up parts and money So now its in our garage somewhat apart.

Its a 57 Chevy sedan its been painted for a few years now were finally going to finish it this winter. Going to put a small block in it with a four speed Hurst trans. The the motor for it puts out over 500 HP. But first my dad wants the tractor out of the garage.

I finally had a chance to work on the tractor today took some of the trans and motor apart, took the tires off the front rims and the other day I polished the head.
