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? |
