So as not to break the pins on backside of
chrome nameplates and lettering, I took the
sheetmetal off. Then, with small punch-hammer
carefully tap out the pieces from the back
side. Contact on the tiny mounting pin of
the emblem, or lettering.
This was from a 350 tractor. The FARMALL,
and 350, and McCORMICK chrome pieces. If the
little holding roll pins are gone from the
sheet metal, you could use the "speed nuts"
from an auto store to hold the chrome items
back on the tractor when you are ready to install.
Just don't pry off......the mounting pins can
break real easy ! If that happens, save the
broke pins and take JB Weld and reattach to
base of the nameplate. That works real well.
Removing the chrome stuff before repainting
makes a nice way to get a good job done. Its
all pretty common sense stuff, but some can be
stubborn to move !!
