Redneck Custom 3020

[steelin81]

This definately wasn't a factory option. It belongs to my friend's Dad, he built it a couple years ago, when he turned 65 he decided a senior citizen shouldn't have to feed cows in the cold so he built a custom cab around the canopy and ROPS on his 3020. The upper part under the canopy is plywood and the front window is from a Versatile swather, not sure where the sliding windows on the side and back came from. the first time I seen it it had cardboard hoarding in the bottom, which was switched to canvas after the first winter. I did some welding for him this spring and snapped the first shot, Last week he was at my shop to have some work done on the bucket and I got the up close pics.

Gotta give him credit. Not pretty but definetly serves its purpose.

Chris the first time you posted your 4020 with a custom cab I instantly thought of this one, the right photo op just never happened until last week.

Not the first one I have seen like that but the last one I saw wasn't a fancy, it had no sliding window in the back.

A few years back me and my uncle built a homemade cab for a International 140 out of angle iron, plywood, plexiglass, and the rear door off a old mail jeep. He also had a canvas heat shroud around the engine, it would get so hot in the cab I could plow snow in the winter in a T-shirt. It looked redneck and hillbilly as all get out, but it worked, lol.

Pretty good craftsmanship. Most people I know would not even bother painting it. You gotta make do with what you got, and that's what rednecks specialize in. New seat cover? Nope, old leather jacket stapled to the back of the seat and your done.
