mf135 Posted January 4, 2017 Author Share Posted January 4, 2017 Top marks Chris not blowing smoke up you know were but that looks as it should have been made from the start and side shift as well! The one I found a week ago was brand new box and couldn't do it to it but it would look a lot better the way you have done it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a lot of offerings when it comes to u.k spec backhoe diggers in 1/32. Would love to have a 1/32 case 580k construction King , hope someone builds one in the future.
