jdc Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 I think all the parts are made now and mostly painted. Just hope they all fit together. The header almost complete and the engine etc. fitted. Tried the cab for size.Still got internals to fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdc Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 (edited) Sorry young tris, but its definitely for me! I've had a good day at it today (snowed this morning then rained PM) Header trolley primed. Made some lights. Finally got to try the wheels on. And the grain tank lids, steps and mirrors.
