jdc Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 This was next on my 'To Do' list. My machine, 1995 vintage and still going strong. The boom and start of chassis: A couple tonight of all the bits just piled up. Still a lot to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris.watson Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 looking forward to this one john, we run the exact same model of jcb on the farm. ours is on an 'm' plate and has only done 2000 odd hours. your real machine looks in very tidy order. as usual, amazing build and something else to bring down to spalding when you next come down.

jdc Posted February 7, 2013 Author Share Posted February 7, 2013 Thanks everyone. It's actually a bit more complicated than I first expected, especially fitting the cab over the chassis. Looking forward to seeing the fished article John once the JDC decals have been added Think I'll stick with JCB, Bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
