Yea farmers tended to be a bit hard on CMPs. Heres a hay bale hauler and I think an abandoned front end loader project!! I viewed these the other day and they could be useful for parts btu the owner has high prices in his head. (farmer too)

Lol, hope I'm that optimistic at 80 yo.
Lucky I'm so poor, I'd probably be a collector. Or maybe that's why I'm so poor, lol. Cheers

Default Another conversion

Hi Guys

Here is a Blitz conversion I came across on one of our field trips. Dumped in a paddock and left neglected after obviously many years of loyal service.

Cheers

Tony
