  15. Hi all had a busy day fabricating different parts of the machine I've widened the rear load bed which I think is a lot better it is going to look a bit like a Showman tractor / pulling tractor , which will look pretty good I think with it all sign written up on the sides etc , I've also made the rear tailgate door , which I've tacked in place , and finally I've started making the silencers , which me been tight etc and I like to use what I have available I cut an old car silencer in half re packed with wadding ( thanks Nathan ) and welded the ends up to make a pair, not bad for a first attempt and I'm pretty pleased with the result !
