| That's one of the things I like about these old tractors you can still get parts for a 67 year old outfit and paint etc and when you get done have a real usable machine (without a computer) |

Congratulations!! Having sold the WD new I can assure you they looked good new but not as good as the restoration and painting you have done. Good Luck! Bill Long
