robertw1 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I had a race with a Bateman sprayer once, it was in the field next to me when I was chain harrowing and we where both doing the headlands at the same time. He hammered me, he had reached the other end of the field by the time I had reached half way. :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotrod192 Posted August 1, 2012 Author Share Posted August 1, 2012 most of the body work is done although no pics as im waiting on paint drying. im using pics off the net to do this but cant find any decent pics of inside the cab or between the back of the cab and the chemical tank which at a guess will be the engine.i have built an engine for it but could anybody get me a pic of what the engine cover looks like?
