hello Zetor 3511 sitting for 25 years

[moliner]

Hi,
I'm Lars from Norway, and I found a 3511 that sat in a shed for 25 years.
I manage to fire the old girl up, and started a kind of restoration project.
Fuel pump is refurbished, almost all brake parts are replaced, and rust removing/painting is still ongoing.

Hah! Nice finding!
That's a restoration which would be cool to follow.



Ha det bra!

Thanks Joachim,
for the bodywork I use a gold-color metal paint (from a nordic shop called Biltema). It's close to the original color.
For the sheet metal (mudguards, bonnet, etc) and wheels, I use a metal paint called Bengalack(similar to Hammerite) mixed with 20% Owatrol oil. Color is RAL2002.
