Finally got the last oil leak fixed and had it out in the sunshine before bringing it home from my buddy’s shop:




Time to have some fun with it and start arranging parts for  the next project:
1991 MR2 Turbo that I have owned since May of 1990 (my first new car).  Thankfully, it just needs a heart transplant rather than a nut-and-bolt restoration.

Thanks! 

I'm planning to have it at the GOTO in Union Grove, WI this year.  Thre's a whole lot of Summer between now and then so I'll probably do a few more things too.  I just haven't marked up the calendar yet.

Really nice job, they are such a good small tractor. Perkins diesel made them a spectacular tractor. My friends has almost 8,000 hours on it. It is still his primary rake tractor on his 400 +acres hay farm.
Not too many still around, or for sale.

Unless something unexpected happens, it will be in Union Grove.  The shop I did all the work at is just North of there.
