    Always enjoy the tractor restoration videos and this is no exception. My 1955 Chevy was shot with PPG one-stage urethane paint several years ago. I really like it! You are such a perfectionist in everything you do. I was also glad to see that the drainage system you laid in the winter pasture is working just as it is supposed to do. Very glad to see that all is well on the Larson farm! Anxious to see the 856 finished.

    Watched you take this apart and clean it and all the episodes up to now. Seeing it all gray or red really shows how big this equipment is. The years of evolution from small tractors to this just boggles the mind. You have different companies making competing equipment down to the people that use them and are so loyal to their brand. What I see is a beautiful work of art sitting there being painted. Can’t wait to see it all back together

I took it back home paid me and he took it to his house from mine Tractor, but it’s painting you’ve done all the work to to make them look so new you’ve done great I love you. Have a good day.
