Well, finally got round to putting a splash of colour over the old girl so I thought I would share some pictures

After numerous repairs, new tyres and tin work as the originals were rotten

I love those tractors

it looks great

good job scoobyjim

what tyre sizes you have on the roadless ?

They are 16.9 30 on the back and 9.5 24 on the front.

Spoke to john bowen and my tyre man and they said it was correct.

Thats coming along nicely Jim

Assembly started, a lot of the little pieces finished and ready to be fitted

She's looking good Jim!!
Did yours still have the lock for the brake pedals usable?

Pat

this one hasn't got one. it has the transmission handbrake only. I have a breaker with those pats there.

I'm not sure if Selene ever made the parts to make the brake pedal locks operational, I have never seen any.

Pat

nice job and nice tractor , could you you maybe
tell me how wide your axle is between the wheel hubs ?
And maybe some more pictures of the front axle

it looks great scoobyjim

do you have pictures of transfercase ( gears inside transfercase), and maybe differential in the rear end

and i'm curious what is stamped in your transfercase ? ( see picture )

yes i know i ask a lot of questions

Hi yes mine has that plate but will have to check what is written on it.

I have no pictures of the inside, and no im not taking it apart to check

Ill also check the axle width first chance I get

Here is the finished article. Hope you like.

You can be proud! Very nice!!

Looks like new.

I'm going to paraphrase Richard Hammond from Top Gear-Burma special:

"The ugly ducking has become a swan"

Very good job indeed!!!!
