 Topic: More red paint (truck) - and the new resto project
Posted: 05 Mar 2011 at 3:56pm |
Here are some more paint pics of the 84 D250 I am working on. All I have left to do now is paint the hood, valance, pass fender, and pass door and the red paint will be done. Then its a matter of reassembling and then masking for the two tone paint.

And here is the lastest resto project. It is a 1935 John Deere B unstyled. Local farmer (who I used to work for) brought it in. It will need some mechanical work as well as paint/body work. Looking forward to getting started on it. Right now I am in search of the fan shroud if anyone knows where I can get on at let me know.
Thanks
Adam

I hope when you get to the b you put the "model B" on the seat bracket where it goes. I see so many of them on the hood like that they did not start that till 47 when they moved the battrey under the seat. Eric

D17 owner,
Yes it will have the correct hood decals. Wrong paint color and wrong hood decals just make me cringe. I restored the twin to this one about 5 years ago. It had the exact same paint and decals on it (same person painted them years ago).

Out of curiosity, have you found a supplier for new interior door panel? Where did you get the door window molding from?
