Not the best shot but was just walking in the other day and thought it was a good one to take. JD 5065e
 
After doing a new horse fence around the winter pastures with the family, I added tunes to the tractor.

I didn’t order the Deere factor option, because I heard it was “meh” at best. Lo and behold, there were speakers already installed when I dropped the headliner!

I did a little side by side so you could see the difference to what I replaced them with. Also opted for the pioneer head unit so I could run Bluetooth.

Not as great as a vehicle when it comes to sound quality, but not bad at all!

Probably a Tremor or two on the grounds somewhere so I thought this merited sharing on the thread. One hellofa "parade" if you've got 15 minutes to reminisce. Second link is a quick finale. Hope our Tremors hold up just as well. 🍻 🍻 🍻


 
Touch aft loaded in that photo, had to adjust forward.
 
Last year as a senior project, my grandson and I did a John Deere 140 for his senior project. Here are start middle and finished pictures of the build. Completely taken apart ( except the engine, no time) sandblasted, epoxy primed and PPG Commercial Performance paint. Hood, fenders wet sanded and polished( I got a buddy who has a ginormous shop with paint booth, machine shop and welding area. He was in the business) it came out better than factory.

The reason I post this is it’s what I’m planning to do on the 3020 only a larger scale. I’m not taking it completely apart but will be re doing a lot of it. It’s going to take sometime and a much larger area than our shed!

Thank you! It was fun and he got a great grade! He passed and graduated high school.
He did Good work, looks great. I restored a 455 diesel in my garage a few years ago for a winter project. Those little tractors make fun projects.
 
My girlfriend and I picked up a SCUT to help maintain the property so here's my first entry to this thread.
