Kevin's 520H

This one belonged to Kevin's dad, he brought it down today from the North side of Indy. Nothing better than to have dad's old Horse. It's here to get it running, replace a few things, and make it look like new again.

He should be home in about 30 minutes, it's already torn down and pressure washed. We don't mess around here Kevin lol. :rolling

After a good cleaning some of the tires don't look so good. Will call in a bit Kevin when you get home or if you see this you can call me.

Looks like the reason she won't run is the trigger module is bad. Gonna hunt one up today.

Decals are on the way from Terry. The fan, bolt, nut, tail lenses and bases are ordered from Toro. Looks like the fan bolt got loose and ate up the bolt, washer and fan. Plenty of gas in the oil too lol. Getting ready to get the Onan parts on the way, the rest of the parts we need we have in stock.

Looking good Geno. Hope you get to replace those tires.

Its looking good Gene. Moving Long quite nicely. They whole family seems to be watching along with me and looking forward to seeing it all back together shiny and new.

Yes Kurt I am replacing the tires. Gene makes a convincing arguement for doing it and he's right, it just would look completely done without new tires on it!!

Good move Kevin. I replaced the tires on my 1988 520H last spring. What difference. It seemed like a new tractor. The old ones were so hard that my traction was greatly reduced.

I'm enjoying watching the progress too.

Tires didn't show today, I'll give them a call in the morning but they should be here tomorrow. Been making progress through the day but it's been a little wild trying to get all the parts rounded up, especially Onan parts. I ordered a trigger kit and plug wires today so they're on the way.

Got all the black parts sanded and ready for paint earlier today. Got some pics before hand sanding the crevices. Still out here blasting now.

Been going back and forth, paint then blast, when it's time for the next coat paint then blast lol. :rolling
