Here is the mock up
I plan on adding a piece on the back because I`m afraid if I cut the chassis in half it will weaken it to much.

Of course it will have super tires and wheels

Actually, the back is where the extra length is on a super anyway...my 1872's frame has the rearend bolt holes and 3-point hitch upper holes, and then a few inches further back it has the holes the tractor uses to attach the rear.

Great idea, I was also thinking about stretching a quietline, I recently picked up a 1650, and have a line on a 1450 roller to go along with my 1250. Once I finish restoring the tiller that came with the 1250, my plan is to get after one of the tractors. Being 6 foot and a less than solid 280 lbs maybe a stretch is in order!

Didn`t get much done today exept cut the crossmember out for the fender pan and got the implement handle off. I liked to have never got the roll pin out of it luckily I have a hot wrench(a torch):biggrin2:

I am liking the idea of the extended wheel base, will keep my eye on this one!

I have been thinking about your project, seems pretty straight forward in concept. Was wondering what your plan is for the clutch/ brake pedal? Do you plan to move it rearward in the frame, the same amount as you slid the fender pan/ rear end and trans, placing back in the same perspective with the foot rests that it had originally? I guess another option would be to cut the pedal off it's mount and adding a piece to it that runs in line with the bottom of the frame, to move the pedal assembly rearward back in position over the foot rest. This would be the easy solution, but the added length would make an odd travel if the pedal when pushing it with your foot, as it traveled forward, it would also travel upward....hhmmm...probably a bad idea. Just thinking aloud...
