[Farmall] 'H' Paint Job

[Ed and Mary Gilliland]

Jim,.

I am in the final stages of my H restoration now, and painted it this past 
year.  I used a little over 6 quarts, but could have saved some had I 
painted it all at one time instead of stretching the job out over several 
different painting times. I used an HVLP sprayer.  I just got the engine to 
run on Dec. 22, that was a good sound after spending a full year working on 
it.

Have fun with that old tractor!
