That is great! I wish I could paint things up like that :mrgreen:

And, as all of you might know, I'm envious again (for not having a fordson) :cry:

What do you plan to do with it? plowing, or other things?

Also, as I have seen in the last picture, looks like you need to tighten the bolts on the rear wheel studs, otherwise, "a thing that we fordson addicts don't want to happen on fordsons" would happen :shock:

Nice! 8) Don't loose your head over a lost wheel. :wink: Do you have all the lugs on the left front? :eyes: Dandy Dave!

I was hoping no one would notice the lugs. Just put wheels on temp to get out of shed. Still need to put new rubber on. :mrgreen:

Don't have a lot for it to do here. But well use it where I can.

I say I don't care how good looking you are you still have to work.
Wife thinks I talking about her.
My customers think I'm talking about there horses.
I'm sure you guys its about the tractors.
The truth is it all about me. :clap:

Great Stuff

What year is your major ? I see that she has got the radiator shutters so I presume it is before April 1957 because I think that they were discontinued at that time.

Cheers

1954 with a 61 replacement engine. According to my dad who bought it new it was the second one imported into US.

Are you going to fit the weights?

I always remember that almost all farmers around here wanted to put weights on their ford 5000s, those who don't have weights always wanted to buy a set but they cant due to its price being expensive at the moment(our ford 5000 only has a pair fitted). So I think you're pretty lucky to own a fordson that have a full set of weights on it. :mrgreen:

I do have a full set plus two pair, I'll fit them up after the new rubber is in place.
