I wish I could take credit for the restoration on this but alas, I can't. An older gentleman in Rabbit Town, Alabama did the work. He did a great job. I've attached some images of the original I'm going to restore. Needless to say, I have my work cut out for me.That is a clean 1812! Did you restore that one too? Please post some pics of your 100 restore!!!
They both look good! Looking forward to following along with the progress.Got the grill frame sandblasted and primed today. IH badge looks pretty good for it's age.
9251Any idea what the serial number is on that Original?
Psnider, I echo with the other post encouraging you to get a manual, forge ahead and lean on us in this forum to encourage and assist you. I recently completed a restoration on a 104 that took me a year (I still work full time). I had never restored a CC before. It was such a rewarding experience and is so satisfying to operate it around my property now. If I had more room (and $), and I'd do another! So, as long as you have the desire to return this Original to a refurbished state, you can do it!! Keep us posted on your progress...Starting to work on the engine. Yikes, I don't even know where to start.
