Wondering what some of us have paid to have painting done, since I dont have the space, area, building, or equipment, needed to job out having the old boy given a fresh look. The job I am having done is stripping two coats of paint off - the last one was a bad "auction" paint job over grease and dirt and wrong color. Person doing it did a nice job of taking the paint down to basically bare metal, primer, and paint with hardner. The painter has over 50 years experience, specializes in tractors, does semis, heavy equipment, and cars. I am supplying the decals. He asked if I wanted a "resortation" paint job, aka "show quality", I responded I wanted a good looking working tractor with a quality paint job that will last. No metal work involved, only ding was a slight one on the hood where someone tried to open it up with the exhaust stack still on. No fenders, no 3 point, narrow front. Holding back on my price until I hear some here, wondering if the zing in my wallet is high or not. Oh, he supplied the paint. IH paint. Also he does mechanical work also, while doing the tractor he noticed the seat bushings and rod was shot, fixed it, I ordered the parts. He also fixed a lens that I did not know was cracked. Thanks, Jim (SW Wisconsin if location makes a difference, rural location, no building overhead such as city or business location.)
