Sanding the hood today on the mini jd 9630 . Todays picture shows me doing body work on the engine hood. I have most of the other parts all sanded already. I’m going to get a coat of primer on all the bare metal parts and then I will get back to building more on the tractor. The parts are 90% done so there is not a lot to build yet . One full week of fabricating yet and it could be ready for paint. This is by far going to be my favorite garden tractor and my grandsons hot rod jd is going to be my second favorite. I have enjoyed working on these a lot. I’m hoping by next summer to take all of them to a garden tractor show and display them . None of the tractors are completely done so i can’t display them this summer. I still have unique attachments I want to build for each tractor to really set them off when they are being displayed. I want people to walk up to my display and see several tractors like they have never seen before and walk away with big smiles on their faces. Whenever I see unique custom garden tractors it brings a huge smile to my face and I always compliment the owner on a job well done. Have a great Wed.
