John Deere 730 Narrow Front Tractor Loader

Half Scale Tractor- Nicole , Bill and Terak made it home safe today and i headed back to the workshop. I started building the first parts for the jd 45 loader that will go on this tractor. Also I decided a few days ago to remove the starte hanging off the side of the hood and redo the hood to a clean look again. While working on the hood I decided to remove the side muffler and plumb the piping up to the top hood muffler that was just for looks . Then I redid the carb air cleaner and lowered it and rebuilt the other side of the hood for a cleaner look. I am very happy now with the clean smooth look again. The downside is now i have to start it with a rope but it starts the first pull so that is not a problem especially the few times I drive it . I drove the 730 for the second time last week around the front yard and the back yard and it is really fun to drive. After the loader is done I want to build a old fashioned manure spreader to pull behind it. Then when I put it up for sale I will sell it with the loader and the spreader to make it look even nicer. We sure had a blast with Nicole , Bill and Terak .
Have a great Sat.
