well pics of 205 before tear down but steam washer.
and then full empty case ready to blast/prime/paint and reassemble.
and after full tear down its a low miles case and super clean inside . plus it still had the tag on the pto cover 3-xx-81 so its a 82 model case. nice to know if anything.

WOW, you're going alot further than I did. I hope I don't regret not tearing down my 205. Then again, I didn't build a doubler. I get lost INSIDE those things. I hope I never have to tear mine down. I know who to call if need be.
Looks cool, Brett. Bill and I gotta get down there and check out the progress. He's getting anxious for his "lift" too.
Talk to you later!

well i taped and got them ready to prime and paint tonight.
Looks kinda tedious, now you know why alot of my stuff is still covered in grime. Yours will look a lot nicer than mine.
At least till you submerge it in my mud!!

Ya i always wanted to be that caring, i just never could fully commit to it.
Now that I have access to a sand blaster cabinet at work, I've found that I am much more anal. 
It was just too much work by hand or with a wire wheel before.

Love that GREEN! It SCREAMS!!
Do you have a picture of the tag?
The early model 205s have the tag between the shift rails mounted with small screws.
The current 205 I have in my blazer didn't have a tag and there is no screw holes for a tag in the front. I thought it was strange it didn't have a tag.
I'm just curious, that all.
My tag was, and still is, on the driver's side PTO cover.
yep mine looks like that tag. and its basicly a build date and ser # tag.
the case i have has no round or square np 205 model bla bla like the older units.
