Whooooeeee!

Searched half the state for this radiator cover.

Noticed it was bent a little, but hey, I've straighted 'em before. This is what I found under the paint. :>(

Dunno, maybe I should try and find another. :>)

Allen just box it up and send it to my one buddy with a twelve pack and he will have it looken like new in no time . If ya think that is bad you should have seen the grill on my S/MTA when it came off the trailer he sat in the back of the shop on 5 gal bucket with his Elf hammers pecked and sipped every once in a while he would get up shoot a bit of primer on it sand a bit peck a bit sip a bit mixed up about a thimbul fill of feather fill sanded a littel more shot it in primer and put the red to it . When we took it of the tractor it was smashed in to the bolster so bad that it took both of us with 6 foot pry bars to get it off. It was bad now ya can not tell .

I have to hand it to the guys that do body work. I can turn a wrench and beat a piece of metal to do my bidding but to unwrinkle sheetmetal must be a gift from the gods. That tallent completely eludes me. At least I get a lot of runs and orange peel when I paint so it hides most of the crappy work under it.

Allen ---If you got a body hammer and a steel block to back it up you will be suprised how quick it will imprive..... rember 10 easy well directed taps is better than 1 hard one.....then add a little filler.....

What?

Runs, overspray and orange-peel aren't considered good? Ooops! :>)

The true, dyed-in-the-wool tractor nut is not happy until those runs have turned into true drips and sags.

Just pour the paint to it and hang it up when the runs dry up take a pocket knife and trim them off the bottom .
