Now that will look great Adam, just like a big ih.:beer2:

I sat and read this thread through, with my breakfast, this morning. I have a newly acquired 149,with the K301 Magnum 12. I love what you have done with yours. I won't be able to do the "restro", but some of your "mods" hopefully, will eventually be incorporated into my "yella' mule".
Thank you so much, for the extra effort, in sharing with us the progress, with pictures of before and after.

I got it welded and bolted on the hinge.

Looking good Adam.:beer2:

That looks heavy duty enough to store munitions in it.

Nice work!

Thanks guys. The sides are 1/4" thick and the bottom and lid will be 10ga. I want it to be able to take a hit just in case I run into something or if I decide to unbolt the lid and hang suitcase weights from it.

Looks good Adam!:beerchug:

Looks great, Adam!

Adam,
Your tractor turned out awesome. Not sure I would mow with that unit. think you should find another tractor and save that one!
Regards,
Chris

A test fit before I finish welding it.
