Hello,

where are you located? I have parts.

Would help to be a little more specific, too about what parts you need/ are lacking

I'm in need of the front engine compartment tins and side curtains, firewall, rear fenders and operators station. My dad and I picked one up that runs well for very cheap but the rest of it is ugly. We would like to try to save it if it is possible. I guess we are looking pretty much for a parts tractor with a locked engine. I'm located just outside of Albuquerque.

George Rankin Makes most of the Tin work You need ,Probably all bar the side Curtains, his address is in the Sticky Columns . I think Scott Flint Makes the Side Curtains and both of these gentlemen are in C.A. LJ

I have several of the parts you need or a parts tractor. E-mail me. Click on my handle (brewzer) and send me an E-mail. - Wally

Thank you Jan. I don't have any straight pieces. The fenders are a little wadded up, and one tin is missing because the track was lose at one time and cracked the fire wall. Someone was hard on this little guy some time in its life

O.p- I sent you a private message. Since you are so new here, I don't know if you checked them yet or not. I would encourage you to post 2 or 3 pictures of your tractor so us other members could see what might be needed, easier than you trying to describe every little detail.
The other thing I consider mandatory is if you haven't yet, buy a service and parts book reproduction from Jensales. That will help considerably, and aids communication of what parts you are looking for by part number.

Also you might want to decide what level you wish to refurbish your tractor to. If it's running and working well, you may want to use serviceable used pieces to put it back together, then decide if you want to repaint or not. This would save money over using all new pieces and going for a concourse restoration, on a tractor that is missing lots of pieces.
Some of my tractors I have the most fun with are good running, original or unrestored ones. Think rat rod.

Congrats on the tractor and have fun!
