Why would anyone want to paint over a jaunty paint scheme that had bright yellow roadwheels? :D

On the other hand, the new paint scheme looks just as nice and you have more tools to lose in the bush.

Excellent job Bob, is it yours or does it belong to a group? Do you have any pic of the inside of the rear and engine? Hope it’s coming to Corowa next year. :thup2:

Not mine, got out of them years ago. A local group managed to buy Ophir County Council cable laying unit a while ago and have put a lot of man hours into rebuilding it. Had it ready for ANZAC day but RSL wouldn,t let them in the parade this year. It,s on a Camp Quality Tractor Trek this w/end to Dubbo and return. Made all the boxes and fittings useing pics and measurements.

You might have missed that pic, Mike... 1487 by the look of it.
