It is definitly nice.I love it when people put their personal touch on things.I never was a totally original type of guy.To me original usually means they did the same thing at the factory to make things easier to build.Original is you have the same exact original tractor as the other guy has.I like to keep the colors on brands in the ball park so you know what it is,but all the little add on's you do is just cool,thats exactly what Papaw did and to me it's just awesome! If I was a judge at a tractor show the original guy's that did their tractor to what it was like when produced would hate me for sure. LOL KW

Im not totally for the original thing but not against it. I think it should have personal touches lol like a seat fenders and tires lol the tires make the tractor

It does have my personal touches. I replaced some of the bolts (enuf to accent) with the chrome button head style. I think they look nice. I have also added pinstiping. I know this isn't right, but that's what I want. I'll wait til it's nice outside to get a few pix. I have used it to plow the driveway, but I have that done now. That way I don't have to clean it back up lol. Thanks again.
