Pulling garden tractors- Today’s progress picture shows my grandson Terak’s first tractor I am making for him. He really likes big tires, big chrome exhaust pipes and fast tractors !!! Well, at 16 months old I am just counting on him liking those things , ha,ha.
I got the fenders , running boards and seat mounting metal all sanded and primed today. I ordered tractor pulling style tires for the front but am now thinking of ordering puller type rims too for the front to kinda match the shiny rear rims. Now Terak’s tractor is pushed to the rear and next I will mount the two 30 inch ag tires on the rear of the next project that will end up looking similar to a jd 630 narrow front. By next weekend that project should have the narrow front on it , the rear fenders built and designed and the hood design built with exhaust and air cleaner pipes. Now that I am reading this I am not sure I can do all that in one week, LOL
Have a great Friday !!
