Apparently they will build to order, price tag is way out there A most impressive machine but I'll stick with the lumbering history builders. David...

I think you are right..The International 3-5 ton KB wheels are identical to the one in the close up and the springs are automobile springs and the bogie wheel frames are stick built..Good design though and obviously works well..
