Awesome choice, Pete. My Uncle had one of these on the farm. Got it surplus. Can't even begin to tell you how many fields I Hayed with that Baby.

Cheers guys, Ian, it's a distinct possibility that I will make a miniart tractor in the future! Jeff, great to hear you actually drove one of these, I'm sure there are still many out there still going strong. Well what can I say except the kit is an absolute gem. It goes together really well and for such a small simple model is beautifully engineered. I've been having so much fun with it that I'm almost finished with the build phase! ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51109515868_ca21dd2091_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51110388420_98c5dd0d82_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51109610671_de73c62c9f_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51109044002_eb9761c6e2_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51110388215_b7d93d27ce_c.jpg)

That looks the business. Did all the bling come with the kit?

Thanks fellas, Guy, I'll be doing a USAAF one just for a change. Tommy, the only bling in the box is the etched parts you see, nothing too taxing to fit. The wiring etc is just lead & copper wire I've added myself.
