meadowfield 1,900 #5 Posted February 2, 2014 what a fab project the sticker at the back says REO which gives a clue. They were bought by Wheel horse in the 60's, don't see many of them around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pmackellow 2,738 #6 Posted February 2, 2014 I assume the number on the front was chosen so that it reads the same upside down... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That and the model/serial tag pop riveted on the rear. Them's a rare breed here, I would think even more so over there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ian 2,417 #11 Posted February 6, 2014 I think you have built more projects than I've had coffee's Nigel I did try and look up your place on Google sneak View.. When I got close my computer blue screened.. I guess it was scared about what it might see in your front garden Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wheeledhorseman 19 #12 Posted February 7, 2014 Ever thought about publishing a book of all these amazing things you build out of scrap? Best gloss over the fact that this project was based on a rare (even in the US) REO though. Andy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
