Good stuff man I like the lights and you have some very cool machines there! Have any pics of the old Sears bike? I'd love to see it, there's a special spot in my heart for old and unique things mechanical or not!
i can take a pic of the drover tommorrow, its kinda in sad condition, its sitting out back behind the barn rotting because i dont have room for it, i plan on restoring it this summer

I made some for my White a while ago. A buddy of mine has a 50 ton Niagara press so we bent them up at 45 degrees I think. Been a while. But anyways, I drilled some holes to mount some angle iron on the front and rear to fill the gaps. The sides what we did is we bent over 1” and then notched it where it needed to be cut. Worked like a charm! I’ll get the finished product out later today for a new picture of it painted and assembled. Hope this helps.

Nicely done. We'll start working on the tractor project soon after installing the suspension and toyo tires on the truck this weekend. Good thing my friend got a press machine.
If you don't have a metal brake, just heat it up with an oxy-acetylene (Or oxy-propane) torch (Make sure you move it around so you don't burn a hole it the metal) and then the metal bends like butter.
