THE "GMAN'S" TRACTOR!!!

[NCGMAN]

It aint new, shinny or worth a lot of $$$$ but so far it has cranked every time ..Let's all hope it keeps on keeping on. I waxed a little place on the hood just to see if it had any shine left. Had a little.... Them tires are old!!! Hope they last a while;;; two more years???? Gonna try and post some photos of it now,,, let's see if I can....

The paint was oxidized a bit on my Yanmar when i got it also. You'd be amazed how much better your tractor would look after spending a couple hours with some rubbing compound and a cheap buffer . But....... then people might call you a tractor waxer !

G man, I love the tires !!

Try the rubbing compound as ductape suggested, you will be amazed .

Those tires are great! They looK like huge balloons! I love wide tires but I don't want to pay for them!

Nice looking tractor BTW. Be safe!

Nice Ride, GMAN. Just because you didn't give a lot of $'s, doesn't mean it is not worth a lot.

Red cleans up nice as everyone has said. Well worth the effort. Just make sure your rubbing compound is fine grit, polishing compound. I did mine by hand, didn't take too long. A 50-50 mix of Wesley's whitewall cleaner and kerosene will do wonders under the hood.

Looks good to me!! As long as it starts and runs that's the most important part.
Enjoy!!!!

That's a nice looking tractor GMAN. That thing should float with those tires, but don't try it. Work Safely and have fun.

Never thought about floating : Fishing Creek is only a few hundred feet through the woods or down the road.. or across the field....
