Lovely tractor @Pennine Ploughing a real credit to you (y) will you work it? Also is your shed a container?
yeah I knew it would be more than a 2day job, so did most of it in a 24 foot lorry body, clear roof and plenty of light, started it in January in spare time, yes it will be worked, mainly scrapping out will not be doing period, but more light duties, hay making etc

That looks spot on
Does it fit well or a few tweaks needed

Out of interest how much was that?
Few tweaks needed, for example we discovered that the bonnet tapers from 670mm at the front to 640 at the back so we had to cut and reweld the rear section to fit. We also had to trim the bottom radius where it meets the top of the side panels to get it to sit nicely.
Considering how little he had to work from he did an excellent job.
Will post some more detailed pictures later.

Very reasonably priced much less than getting a good second hand one from the continent ;)

Fine tune it, there might be a market for 1 or 2 (y)
