Speedex 1631 build

[firehart2]

I am in the process of rebuilding this Speedex 1631 to give to my 7 y/o son on his birthday. The kid is obsessed about tractors and this couldn't be a more fitting present. Luckily my wife was able to find such a project. Although it didn't have the original engine, the brand new one that I put on it has more than enough power to still pull a plow and gang of disc that the tractor came with. The new decals will be added in the morning. Should make any 7 y/o proud.

The tractor sat for a very long time and luckily we were able to resurrect it. Thanks to my wife and father n law, for helping get it home while I was on duty at the FD.

Thanks for the comment!!

All done with thanks to Troy Stevens for the steering gears and Mike Hamper for the decals. The needed parts came in just in the nick of time. We'll be giving it to him in a few short hours. I'm sure he'll be excited!!!
