Big job on! farmer Friend let us have a play to set up and test plough. Only another 30 acres to go! Oh and he has now told me that it has only been cultivated twice in 5 years as it is the heaviest wettest field on the farm.

Making good progress Nigel, its starting to look like a proper little tractor. 

Plenty of room for your lanky spindly legs Norm 😂

Well it’s funny how this is starting to look considering every part of it except the engine has come off the scrap pile, ime quite liking it, now I will make a point this is supposed to look ratty and won’t be up the the standards of the showmans or my previous builds and was never intended to be, oh yes and the steering wheel will be lower 😂

Beautiful chris once again, once these are finished you should make trackhorse look just as good coz it deserves it 
And while your at it stick a decent engine on it 😂

Bill’s just about finished now, engine detailed and control cables fitted. The sediment bowls have been rebuilt with new rubbers and seals and new fuel pipe 
Decided to go with the pepper pot exhaust so pipes made and fitted, bonnet fitted and decals all done.
Many thanks to Titch at Machinery Decals for a superb job. 

That looks tidy Norm 

They're growing up. Still ten.
 

Exhaust done 
 
 

That’s smartened it up Norm

Top coat of paint on. Agricultural enamel. IH red. Brush painted. Now all I have to do is wait for it to dry.
 

 

 

Looks naked without fenders chris 😂

Engine pulley runs anti-clockwise so you'll be going backwards?
