They must have had both smithy, I’m certain they had grey, or some at least. I’ll try to find an original photo of a new one.  

no point asking me😁 been looking at a few pics and i can see both,maybe black ones are aftermarket replacements?? either way i need new ones making for bigger stones,so would be nice to know

The Load Monitor was a new feature on the 7000 (lower link sensing) and all tractors would have had that decal. Dual Power was an option, although most 7000s had it. If you have the Dual Power sticker you will need the Dual Power lever on the side of the dash next to the indicator switch.

Made a start on my Richard Western GRS25 Chaser Bin. 

Base trailer is a Ros Samson Slurry Tanker, I had to cut it about a bit to get it down to the right chassis length.  Also need some repairs to the rear axel steering as this was a factor reject version.

I've got one of these on my shelf as well, did you go with a 1174 axle or a scratch build?

Now that I like ALOT! Are the wheels the ones George Turner supply?

 no mate, i managed to get one of those aeroshima toyota vans on the cheap, from a uk seller, just for the wheels ,although a few parts may be used as well . i had to assemble the chassis then cut it up to fit mine i made, wont see most of it, but they are the only wheels i have seen that suit it.
