Well mostly just cosmetic stuff.A few gaskets and seals for those that leak and new rubber all the way around.I got the fenders,seat,steering wheel and the Farmall emblel from SWR,but the gauges and wiring harness are coming from OEM as well as the new serial no. plate.(Ill probably get chewed out onthat but the old one was so far gone I could barely make out the number.A friend of mine took it to his head shop and manafluxed it,I think thats what he done,to get the number.)The engine is an IH repalcement engine from 49 I think,theres no serail no stamped on it but i think the casting code was for a 49.It runs like a top but am having new plugs,points,cap and wires put on anyway.The carb needs building but only because its dirty on the outside and the gaskets leak some when its been running for a while.We had rebuilt the tranny a while back so everything in there is still good but hes going to check it out when he pulls the top to replace the gasket.HE wont get much done over the next two weeks,hes heaed up your way to the Portland show while hes on vacation.Hes going up there to get a axle cap for mine and a few other things for his toys,brags on that show!Says if I could get off work I ouught to ride up there with him!
