Lanse, dont you know once you start something you just gotta finish it to show it whos boss.

I look at it like this, if you give up now all the time and money you have spent so far will be just basically thrown away and for nothing. You might as well have taken the cash and set it on fire in your drive way.

This is your first endeavor at restoring a tractor, its not cheap, its not easy as with the first of anything. You have to realize your new at this, you cant learn everything over night. What may take me a weekend to do, may take you a year, someone else just a saturday morning.

Second point, you need to stop jumping around, working on the c, then the mower, then the b and so forth.

Third point, you need to get your priorities straight on this restore. Work on one thing at a time, dont tear down the engine and then decide oh iam gonna work on the rim, or iam goin to work on the clutch. In my opinion the dumbest thing you did and dont take this the wrong way was literally pi$$ money away on paint when the tractor wasnt even running. Painting should be last. The first thing you do with a restore or old tractor is get the engine working and running first then move on to the next thing. Stop the jumping around on different things.

Now, get that C restored and running.
