Gav836 Posted June 22, 2008 Author Share Posted June 22, 2008 I've done a little more to it today, mostly fiddly time consuming bits like the drawbar, drawbar mounting and pump plate mountings on the front and the rear elevator mount and carrier on the back. Still not happy with that last bit yet so it may come off again and be rebuilt \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
