Waiting for parts so I am modifying the loader mounts. The loader came off of a B7200 which is one size smaller. The wheels would not turn very short. We will see what we can do with it.:biggrin: Dusty

Getting your hands dirty is half the fun. The tractor is 25 yrs old and has not been treated well. Now that I have it it is getting a treat. One rear fender is in rough shape, its going to take a bit of work to make it sturdy again.:biggrin: Dusty

Did some work on tthe fender. Nasty. This tractor has to be done fairly quickly or it is going to be snowing while I am trying to put the cab on it. So it won't be that pretty but it will be strong.:biggrin: Dusty

Out with the bad and on with the good...
It will look great after you get some paint on it and the snow is flying...
Looking good...:thumbsup:
