Baking ultra high heat (ceramic header paint) to see how it works .

Is she out of town for four or five day's I remember vividly what happened when I baked on the 224's clutch disk
Gordy
She is at work and I am doing it in the garage canning kitchen .
Krazzy I am , stupid I am not .
Ceramic coating worked out ok . Have to see what it will look like against the orange when the hood and grill are painted . I think they need to be black with chrome grills on to look right .
All I need now is the dog house on ( cab) and I am ready to take on the Red Barron .
Looks good Dave! I thought about the mufflers a little yesterday and think the side is the way to go. Stacks can look cool, but don't think I would like them sticking up in my vision on a work tractor. Up the corner of the cab could work, just wouldn't want it where you could use it as a grab handle. Under the hood is nice, but the room and burning the paint off the older tractors... Going under may have issues with exhaust getting in the cab.

I kinda like the look of the desert sunset hood.
It's not is painted yet guys. What do you think Desert Sunset, on hood only/ top of hood and grill only/ hood and grill / or Power Red .
Decals / it is not 16 hp anymore 3.25" bore x 3.00" stroke and 140 psi. I calculate 20+ hp at 3600 rpm governor .

Trying to visualize it with new paint and how it will look with the cab.
Without a cab, I'm leaning toward just the hood, like the bottom pick above.
I'm a little biased, I really like the look of the desert sunset tractors.
You must make this your own.
Very sloppy way of doing this but you shouldn't expect much from an old man and 3 minutes work. LOL
Taken time to really think about it I believe you could come up with a great looking tractor. If you really don't like it when you are finished wouldn't take much to put it back. If the rear fenders and wheels were color of hood. Or fenders just left alone and wheels done.
