Mopar - D Posted April 17, 2018 Author Share Posted April 17, 2018 (edited) After 2 moves this past year just a couple items on the cab to rein stall. I’ve started to glue the sides on. My plans are for getting this finished by the end of the week. Having a weeks vacation is helping out.

gatorincebu Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Dan, That tractor looks great. And I love the real wood in the trailer ! Be Well Gator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopar - D Posted April 18, 2018 Author Share Posted April 18, 2018 Thanks Joe and Gator, It’s been tricky trying to get the sides glued to the bottom and keep everything at 90 degrees and lined up. Ended up using wood clamps to get full length contact to get even pressure along both sides at the same time. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it stays together when i remove the clamps. Here’s what it looks like drying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
