Beautiful! Just beautiful.

Thanks C&S! Got my chisel out, and in stone the 72 build will happen in Spring of '14! Its been along time coming!

I want to get the transmission in Cub Cadet Yellow in a week or two while the weather is about alright to do so. The front axel will be in primer just as soon as the sealer cures. I want to take this part, the Kohler K241, and at least the hood to the shop this winter to paint under the Dayton heaters again. I really love how the Cub Cadet paint has flashed under that heat!

All that will be needed to be painted is the grill case, and those rear rims. I will get those rear rims the way I want or close to! We're going to have fun with the k241, this should be nice to see!

Its really coming along man, I'm glad you continue to keep us all updated. There's nothing wrong with taking your time and sticking to your goals. You're not cutting any corners and it will undoubtedly show in the final assembly.

3 of the 4 parts I ordered came in today. The reduction housing cover plate gasket is on back order. Here are two rear wheel seals, and the reduction housing to transmission case gasket.
