I wish it would have..   It was rolled over sometime in its history, and the fenders, radiator shroud, hood, and steering tube all needed lots of help.

 That is really nice.  I have never seen an IB  close up , They must be a heck of a lot easier to on and off than a B ?

Matt,
I suggest you chain the tractor into one of those tie- stalls! Just don't try the the milking machine; they prefer hand milking.

I should let you do mine , I'm not doing that good of a job on mine . I just don;t have that talent., I see a drott plate on the side of the frame . Did it have some kind of drott attachment on it. mine has a drott tag on it, but it had a drott blade on it. I love it , you did a beautiful job.
