Set up a 3 1/2" straight pipe for the exhaust, Mounted the tires and of course had to see how she looks.. The correct police are gonna love this one, should keep them fuming for some time....

I love that project. I am thinking someday I will put a 3400 from a D21 or a 220 in a WC Steel Wheel, and call it a heritage tractor. Why, just because it would be cool! I might have to install P/S though???

Looks like a monster. I've always wanted to get an unstyled WC with a bad motor and drop in a flathead V8. I think it would be a nice looking set up and be pretty period correct for a "hot rod" tractor.

Gary, I just love your ideas every time you post. Did you take the WC fenders and just cut off the ends so they would fit around your meats better? I like that idea. I just picked up a set of 36" spokes that I have to widen out for meats for my WC puller. After seeing the spokes for yours, and seeing a set for sale, I figured it would look way cool. Found a set of spokes for the front also.

Chuck, my fenders were in poor shape on the ends , so I bobbed them 16" front and rear. Need to make new brackets , maybe a padded armrest and drink holder on the right side, and since I intend to mount this beast from the front left side a grab handle for the left fender.
