With the trailer completed my next step is restoration of the Murray Tractor itself. This is one rusty beauty but good news is that it is nearly perfect mechanically and all of the rust is surface rust. Will be very little actual repair required.
Trailer with first coat of paint on. I went with a hunter green which is much closer to the original than anything else I can find. You will see others restored in John Deere colors but I like as close to original as possible.
My latest project is restoring a late 1950's Murray Pedal Tractor and Dump Trac trailer. Found the tractor at a local antique store and the trailer on eBay. Follow along as this old treasure gets a new lease on life...
