My finished tractor
Re: My finished tractor
nice job Kyle, have to ask did you use Fordson Empire blue paint as it looks rather dark?
Re: My finished tractor
no it was paint i got from england witch he said was as close to the old colour as you could get... looks dark there alright but its a tad lighter
Re: My finished tractor
No matter the color, that's a nice looking tractor. I didn't paint mine original and I still love it.

Re: My finished tractor
hi Kyle, where did you get the fergie seat
Re: My finished tractor
hi brian, i ordered it from england and had it sand blasted and painted it came of a 1960 dexta
Re: My finished tractor
hi Kyle, I had a petrol/tvo fergie before I found the dexta. The seat although old fashioned was more comfy than the dexta seat
Re: My finished tractor
Most anything is more comfortable than the Dexta's original seat. Like having your backside bolted to the differential.
I made one trip down the field and replaced the original seat. I now have a suspension seat and love it.
