Looking for a RD-4 top radiator tank in good condition. Someone ground the letters off of mine. It would be nice to restore it's namesake.

Could you just mold up some new letters with epoxy, and whittle them with a Dremel? It could be easier than replacing an otherwise good tank. Coat of paint, no-one except you would know the difference. You could even patina the paint so it looked old-timey : )__PRESENT

Do you have pictures of your RD4 engine? I need parts. California is probably too far to be practical. Thanks Mike P.

My cousin made up BEST letters for a 60 and used JB weld for glue with a light bulb inside of the tsnk. The tractor is on the east coast 35 years later and no one is the weiser,
