Time to start the tear down.
All the sheet metal came off easily. There doesn't appear to be any rust to have to deal with. With the "body" off it was a lot easier to see where the tractor was going to need work.
One of the rear hubs was loose on the axle and may have done a little damage to the axle housing.
The brakes need a lot of work. There is no trace of brake pads.
The steering is sloppy, and so is the travel control lever. I think this is just 33 years of wear.
It appears like there might be a leak in the rear end.
This is after the first day of work.
Next step is remove the motor, dash and then hit it with a pressure washer to degrease everything. Then I will continue to remove parts from the frame.
