Over the weekend I painted the hood and fender and a couple of other small parts. They really turned out well and I can't wait to get my decals in and put them on. Still haven't ordered my tires yet....can't seem to turn loose of that money! As you can see, the owner of the tractor (my son) is crazy happy about the lights working. Probably the first time they have worked in 20+ years.

I agree, that's beautiful! Will we get to see it in person at the next Mow-In?

That's a good looking tractor. I'll bet you'll want to find a mowing deck for it once it's all together.

What is a Mow-In?

It is a gathering of Gravelys from all over. Big swap meet, etc.

It's where people like you and your son can bring their tractors and inspire those of us who haven't restored one to do so!

Here's some from last years Mow-In in CT. Next year it will be in Brownsville PA, south of Pittsburgh.

ABSOLUTELY AWSOME! You are now at the stage where it is so close to being done, you can't WAIT to get it finished. Take it easy, don't be tempted to rush, and keep up the excellent work.

I went to my first Mow-In at Somers CT. Been wanting to go for years - but Spring is my busiest time of year. It was a fantastic experience. Met some wonderful people (some of them are frequent contributors here).
