You will get the best job by removing everything that will come off, then painting the chassis and the individual parts. Very time consuming, but the end product is worth it. Regardless of how good the painted-intact tractor looks at first glance, there will be many places that are simply not covered, or if the painter attempted to cover them, there will be sags and runs in that area. The quality of the finish is directly proportional to the time and effort that went into it. On your 350U, I would remove the distributer, carburator, air cleaner, governor, front axle, front wheels, rear wheels and rims, steering wheel, seat, oil pan, hydraulic controls, gas tank, radiator and shroud, fan, etc -- anything that will come off. It obviously will not be a one or two day paint job, perhaps you simply do not have the time, but the end product will be worth the effort.
