I would guess that I am about 70-80% done with everything that I want to do on this machine. It is definitely useable now as it is, but there are several more pretty important things that I need to fix up. Thanks for watching, and have an awesome weekend everybody!

I watched you paint a barn and I'd watch you paint Large Marge. 😄

Personally, I'd love to see a video of you painting it. A refurb isn't finished until it looks the part in my book.

Paint??? Hell, yes... I'd love to see it. Complete with new lettering and decals! Large Marge deserves to be have a new outfit. She's earned it!

BTW - I really enjoy your style: calm, descriptive narrative with just the right amount of cussing, great videography and no stupid music blasting in the background. One of the best fix-it channels on YouTube!

I think I speak for all of us, we would watch you paint it, and then watch a timelapse of the paint drying...love the content and determination!

If you paint, I'll watch. Start to finish. Promise. Full disclosure, I do that with whatever you post, Jon. I enjoy your company. Thank you for these videos.

We’ve all seen you complete so many repairs on Large Marge that she’s earned herself a fresh coat of paint. It would be the perfect icing on the cake!

From turning a screwdriver to turning down metal to rebuilding engines to making ponds and dams and not to mention painting diggers and out houses. Yes I would like to see you paint that thing. John you are entertaining and you teach at the same time, you are a pleasure to watch and listen to.
