P I Farmer Posted November 9, 2018 Posted November 9, 2018 Finally done with everything on my 5488/7140 except the paint and interior. Kinda want to finish it before I sell it but I don’t have a big enough heated building to paint it. Now I don’t know what to do any advice? 1 Quote
FarmallFan Posted November 9, 2018 Posted November 9, 2018 Is that the IH cab with Magnum modifications or is the the Magnum cab with the IH roof? Quote
P I Farmer Posted November 9, 2018 Author Posted November 9, 2018 Magnum cab with IH modifications. I put the IH rear fenders and windshield frame from the 5488 cab on Magnum cab. That was the most time consuming and difficult task of the entire project so far. Quote
Wi Ih Posted November 10, 2018 Posted November 10, 2018 Well that’s cool hopefully you can finish it Quote
Reichow7120 Posted November 11, 2018 Posted November 11, 2018 Is this the tractor listed on Craigslist in Northern Michigan? Quote
P I Farmer Posted November 12, 2018 Author Posted November 12, 2018 Yes it is. I didn’t know my brother put it on Craigslist I wanted to wait and get some opinions but he didn’t listen. Quote

A brother that doesn't listen, imagine that Im downstate a little bit and came across the add. 1 1 Quote

kruegerdiesel Posted December 8, 2018 Posted December 8, 2018 why not leave the magnum fenders on? thats what it would've had. looks like lots left besides paint and interior. Quote
DirtBoyz07 Posted December 25, 2018 Posted December 25, 2018 Is this what your trying to do ? It looks a little off because of the wheel don't line up with the cab ? Danny 1 Quote
