Keep at it and it can look like this one I have.Oh, in the case of this one I'm showing, you'd also have to convert it to as narrow front end. My other 5 are all original front end.

| dennis, what did you use for the narrow front? |

The narrow front was a mix of several items from around the shop. The stem was from a "G" front end. The axles are the "spikes" or whatever you call the rods that help pull a crop into a combine cylinder. The rest is just metal for reinforcing, etc. The front end is not welded to the tractor, only bolted with just 2 holes need to be drilled. Front end could be moved to another tractor in about 2 hours would be my guess. Really the only thing I had to buy was the rims and tires.
