Since the last post I finished painting the rear wheels and installed them, along with the fronts back on the tractor. The steering linkages were installed again for good now. I put the dash decal on as well.
Tonight I put the decals on the hood and tossed it on for a pic. Looks pretty good. Still a lot of work to do yet but going on vacation for a couple days, probably won’t be back at it until next week.

That's shaping up to be a great looking tractor.
