I've always done my own painting and body work on these things,even though I'll never claim to be good at it. If sheet metal or fenders were bad,I'd just buy new aftermarket or better used stuff. The fenders are bad on this Oliver 500 and new ones are expensive and the quality is questionable. Good used ones just don't exist. The grille was smashed in when I got it. I've got it straightened half way decent,but far from perfect. I talked to a guy today who runs a body shop about him fixing the fenders and grille,and painting them and the hood. He came and looked at it just before supper. He said paint and all,probably looking at $1000-1200. I guess for that price,as rare as that tractor is,I'm going to have him do it. It might as well be right.
