Decided to complete a couple of mods, wheels first so I can scoot around the garage.

We viewed it kinda mandatory for a guy with allot of birthdays:D

Phase II tomorrow or Monday, install wood platform and back plus a couple of carry incidentals.

Oooooops. Had to add another phase. Phase III will be attaching the timber.

Phase II is now paint the frame Kubota orange. Will take a small piece from tractor to the paint store and let them match color for an aresol can. I would think that will be an improvement.

More later

Moderater: should this be in attachment threads?

You can find Kubota Orange paint at Home Depot too. Some guys say the Chevy orange is close too - I have an old can of it somewhere I might try on my backhoe bucket.

I used the Chevy engine enamel on something.....it was very close.

Well close will be acceptable. I just wanted to change that yellow, especially after going all in on new 3901.

I will check at HD tomorrow, may call their paint dept tonight. Thanks folks
