You got a pretty good eye for what goes with what! This Original looks very neat with the clamshell style fenders.:buttrock:

Thanks guys!

Glad you like it. We've been working on it for some time, fixing many of the little things that the previous owner learned to live with.

Spent some time last night getting it charging properly and wound up putting a new bearing in the S/G. it worked okay, just REALLY loud!

It originally had lights and I'm considering putting a set back on it.

There are a few more things that we want to do to get it working like we want, and then it's time to take it all down and make it pretty!

I really like that look! Any chance in getting a couple more close-up pictures?

Thanks for sharing,

David

I've seen fenders like that on pullers and I think on an Allis-Chalmers.....but I don't know if they were stock since a puller owned the Allis....

Sure!

Here's a few that show how I mounted them and a photo that I pulled from the 'net that shows a set of complete fenders so you can see the bottom part that I cut off.

I cut them right where the foot pads meet the fender sides. The foot pads on my fenders were mangled pretty bad so cutting them off improved the property value, which is why I found mine pretty cheap.

The way I understand it, they are for a JD 40 Standard. Hope this helps!

Thanks for showing us, how you did the fenders!

...............now I have to add what it is about those style fenders. There is a IHCC 154 Lo Boy for sale just down the road. The Lo Boy just about has the same style fenders as your Original.
