The Tractor Twitcher Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Looking forward to following this rebuild Pete, I had one of those when I was a quite a bit younger. Although it didn't see much use on my carpet farm, didn't have anything big enough to go behind it and it wouldn't go round corners very well . I ended up swapping it with a mate for a dual wheeled Britains Renault 145.14 and Ford 5610. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
