Tractorman810 Posted May 31, 2009 Author Share Posted May 31, 2009 cheers lads, certainly not uh standard but i do like the pipe work on it now,also got the decals fitted tonight, still undecided about the smaller tanks mind,think the only thing i will add is the smaller loading pump tank on the side under the tank, just to fill the gap,few of the pics i now have shows that in palce, also a few more pipes needed of the top and sides of the tank to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tractor Twitcher Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Love this topic for a couple reasons, firstly another cracking build Sean looks absolutley fantastic and secondly i've now figured the make of a derelict machine with smaller equal sized wheels all round but similar cab and no name badges that's rusting away on farm that now runs a forward control MB -Trac in it's place, great stuff.
