    leaps and bounds Nick... she's looking good already mate - will be a show winner when you've finished her I am sure.. thanks for keeping us all updated.  Does she have a name as yet mate... or is that not the done thing over in NZ ???

    Cheers Paul, they are one of the best looking of all types of ag machines, although I think the 5 & 6 walker machines look nicer than the 4, just a bit chunkier....  :)

    And either way, this is business.... If UH, or any other manufacturer, can find a way of actually making some profit, then we will keep getting new models to choose from.... It is also a bonus for people who want something a little different for a collection or layout, it's up to all of us whether we buy them or not, no one is obliged to give us anything nor are we obliged to pay loads for something we don't want. They need to make a profit, so long as they can do that, they stay in business, we all win..  :)

    ;D we use to get people using the stumpy clevis drawbar as a pickup hitch, to save changing over to the hook. it of course stuck out further often caused tractors to bounce on the road and often resulted in shearing off the pick up hitch/drawbar bolts undernath the tractor resulting in carnage. eg leaving drawbar aND TRAILER BEHIND ITS AMAZING HOW FAR HYDRAULIC PIPES CAN STRETCH :D . EVEN SEEN THE WHOLE BACK END RIPPED OUT OF A 7810.

    I can't even bring myself to imagine that.... it's too traumatic.... poor old thing....  :'(  :laugh:
