Steve, Allis Folks,
Yes I guess we are at that level of this Refurb, Clean and Paint process. I did not do a complete new kit for the engine. Most of the engine components looked pretty good. So maybe saved a few dollars there?? Just a freshened stock HP CA engine. Which means we should see what they were capable of when new. Lots of other tractors in the 2500 -3000 lb classes have mods that may increase horse power? All that spends more money and not sure we would have any more fun? I worked on the torque tube today: Hope to get the transmission and rear end cleaned up tomorrow? I did get the oil ring for piston #1 today. So will try to get that and other components installed. Was able to sand blast some CA parts and get them ready for primer soon. Regards, Chris and Cheryl

Allis Folks,
Not too exciting on this end. Scraping, cleaning, stripping paint, Electrolysis tank prep work, Sand blasting, Some welding, Grinding, A little assembly work..... Might shoot some primer in the next few days? Ordered some lifting eye bolts from McMaster Carr. This is way too much work for an old man!:) Perfect to keep me out of trouble! Cut the grass for the last time with the Jubilee and cleaned up the JD 272 finish mower. Weather is supposed to be nice for a couple days. My friend John has been coming up and helping with parts clean up. New seals for the final drives should be here tomorrow. Going to try to do those while the rear of the tractor is in pieces. Hope things are good in Orange land! We took the Comet out this morning for breakfast. It is handling much better after front end work and alignment. it is the main reason I did not get much done on the CA this year! We have had a lot of good times with it. No regrets. May replace rear springs this winter. Regards, Chris and Cheryl
