    20 footer? sheesh i'd hate to see how many feet mine is..i'll be repainting this winter because i hate the job i paid for- ill do it myself this time.

    i really like the tractor blue btw and it looks very good and has a good shine..., especially if you sprayed it outside without every bug around to jump on in

    This thing is gonna be awesome! Originally wanted to do this to mine but I'm a procrastinator and would never happen lol. Where'd you get the hood pins from? I no longer have a hood latch brace and need some before I can put the hood back on.
