Oldskool 6,582 #176 Posted February 19, 2020 It was a late night but here it is. I am down to only a few things left. I have a few touch ups to do and choke and throttle cables. I also have to change the hood bump stop a bit and then DECALS. 1 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ebinmaine 62,936 #178 Posted February 19, 2020 That thing is just plain beautiful. Nice work. What do you need for choke or throttle cables? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oldskool 6,582 #179 Posted February 19, 2020 Thank you @ebinmaine. Actually I do have the cables. I'm just waiting for the paint on the thumb lever of the throttle cable to dry and the paint on the dash washer for the choke cable to dry too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oldskool 6,582 #190 Posted March 13, 2020 Well ever since I painted the Speedex I have nothing but fuel issues. First fresh gas with a large amount of water in. Next the fuel pump developed a crack. Last, somehow ,someway the carb ended up with a sputter. After 4 soakings in cleaner it still hasn't ran right. So today I had a rain day off and rebuilt one I grabbed in the local junkyard. This one runs GREAT. The tractor is finally done 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
