As promised in this thread; Hello From A New Guy in Texas, I am going to start a rebuild of my little L200.
I have several fully equipped shops around my ranch, but I set up this temporary 12x20 shelter next to the main house as I need to stay close by home for some personal reasons right now, and the other shops are too far away on the property. I equipped it with some basic hand tools, a parts cleaner, grinder. etc... This should be enough for most tasks, unless I need to machine or weld something, in which case I'll have to use my main shop for that. I've used several of these shelters around the ranch and they hold up remarkably well. I brought in some dirt and built a level pad then I laid a tarp down to serve as a moisture barrier, and then laid down 3/4 treated plywood as a floor.
Progress will probably be slow as this is just a spare time fun project. I've owned this tractor for around 20 years and she's been sitting up for most of that time. This is my third tractor restoration, so I am slowly learning a bit more each time. I do enjoy bringing a rusted relic back to life and hopefully I'll get this little project completed without too many problems.
