I bought a mig welder off snap-on tools and didn’t like it so I gave it to my son so now i have to walk up his house and beg him to weld the rim, the ark was a bit fearce for it

You should practice with a mig once you get it set up right they are so easy to use I only use ark on stuff like rsjs now

I thought it looked like mig but I didn’t think you had one

Has it got the norton engine in ? And any chance of some updated photos my mates intrested

Is that ark welding chris ?

Yep might know someone for that ile speak to him tomorrow

Nice little project, at least it’s not hanging with rot. 

No there’s no rot in fact it’s the cleanest 70s tractor I’ve seen

This tractor has got to be one of the hardest I’ve every tried to take to bits, it’s a bastard most nuts arnt captive and you just can’t get at them, you unbolt something try to pull it off and then find it’s welded as well, this is going to be very interesting. 🙄 Can’t even get the engine out without dismantling all the body

Be intrested to see what they look like when you get them back chris

Your a clever bugger mr showman 

Ime suprised how small it looks next to the Raider

Deck on all wired up can you see the bit I forgot ?

As Storming said, send a photo to machinery decals he will sort it out with the sn number ime not sure that mark at restoration decals does metal backed but you could try him to. Good luck,

Have you any photos ? 

Never seen one of them before, is it running a Briggs engine ?
