Finally think I'm gettin somewhere! Just the sheetmetal and hitch repair and tractor done! The look on Dad' face as He rides his Dad's tractor is worth all the effort put into restoring Grandpa's '61 140! Can't figure out how the fasthitch was wrenched so hard it cracked the welds on the right side! Imagine My surprise after I sandblasted it bare and found the split welds! Don't have welder so have to take it to friend at machine shop! Other than that and dented hood, should be done by next month! I'll post the completed tractor pic then hopefully with My grinning father taking out to work again! Dad hasn't been doing to well last couple of years and gotta enjoy the ones We have! 25 yrs in Marine Corps, 2 tours in Nam took a toll on Him but He bore it well! Thanks for the help guys! I learned alot from reading Your posts here and on the other discusion boards and don't think it would have gone as smoothly without them! Again, Thanks!
