1966 John Deere 4020 Vintage Tractor Restoration | Tyler B. 2023 Chevron TRC Entry

When I got my tractor I took a lot of pictures and I ordered books to read about the tractor. The sheet metal was the first thing to come off. I completely disassembled the tractor starting with the engine and working my way to the rear. Parts were inspected for wear, rust and pitting. If they did not have one of those three problems, we put them back into service. All of the seals were replaced. Our local John Deere dealer let us borrow special tools and gave us advice when needed. Next, parts were ordered. I followed the service manual and reassembled the tractor. Parts were then prepared for paint. We fired it up and lastly, decals were installed.
