Very good as ever Ted, thought it was about time you produced something again!  What’s next?

Thanks Alastair, yes been a bit busy recently :) I've got another set of atv wheels so might try a spin feeder or another trailer with mesh instead

sadly the roofing hasn't arrived, so unable to progress on the piggery  , so been out in the shed, my plan was to start sorting out ready for packing up for the rebuild, however i found myself distracted and  tinkering ,and have finally sorted the 3060/70 build took me a while but have sorted the removable wheels up front now, so the main daily sets now finished,  have painted up the chassis, and repaired the cab  steps and finally found the air filter for the bonnet, so glad i bought that bust 3000 mf ages ago cheaply , have realised i didn't fit a tow hitch, but easy to sort , main wheels need painting to sapphire grey, but my tin of thats sealed up the nozzle , but i have primed and painted up the spraying wheels ready, need to order decals for the bonnet, but thats all ,plus find a top link for the front  hitch . better pics tomorrow  with luck

Sorry, can’t help with the paint question, but that is a nice looking kit. Not seen one before although I’ve heard of the manufacturer. Going to have to keep an eye out for one. I wonder if there are others in the range?

There doesn't seem to be many more,and looks like the 808 was the only one in 1/32nd scale,

Came across this kit when searching eBay for something else,  it had been part built and I was worried it might have had some bits missing but seems to be all there. This is how far I've got, need some paint throwing at it next does anyone know if the yellow would be the same shade as is used now? I'm assuming the white is white....  Didn't know these kits existed before I found this one.

Pure luck I found it, seems they are indeed rare, maybe it should have stayed in the box but there would be no enjoyment in that.

wasnt overly happy with the front wheels, so a quick spares box hunt and a small bit of work on the width, and a set of uh 3080 rims with old britain's tw/5610 tyres on and i think it looks better, the front axle width is matched now, where as the old ones made the hubs centres  look wider , i may need to reduce the rears width a bit, which will require work on the hubs, as the fitting method means the axles now set, and works fine with standard rims fitted
