IH Tractor Hood Made Into Overhead Bar Light

IH Tractor Hood Made Into Overhead Bar Light TRACTORS Miscellaneous 34-5-11 Dale Mounce of Downing, Wis., grew up farming with an IH 560 tractor. So, when he recently set up a bar in his garage, he decided to make up some tractor dÚcor. He converted an IH 560 tractor hood into an overhead "bar light". He cut the grill off the hood and then mounted a 4-ft. long set of fluorescent lights inside the hood. The lights are screwed to the top of the hood. "It's nothing fancy, but I get a lot of comments and questions on it. Everyone wants to know where I got that fancy tractor hood. I tell them I like to restore tractors, and that the hood was left over from a recent tractor restoration project," says Mounce, who works at All States Ag Parts, one of the largest chains of salvage yards in the U.S. Contact: FARM SHOW Followup, Dale Mounce, ASAP Tractor Parts, E1140 State Road 170, Downing, Wis. 54734 (ph 877 530-1010; dtp@asapagparts.com).
