Nice work. It looks like a previous owner liked the idea of a stack through the hood.

Must be a 35 since it has no temp gauge, but it does have the A-C name embossed in the radiator. Nice old tractor.

Looks good so far Jesse. My 35 is done except for the sheet metal. Finally got it running right last month after going over all the things that I paid to have done wrong. My hood looked way worse than that so I'm using a different one. Mine had a notch cut with a tin snips from the front edge back about 5 inches and it was probably 4 inches wide, just so they could put a temp gauge in. I'm going to have a temp gauge in my 35 but it don't need that big a hole.
