Well finally after years of searching I found one to redo. Plan is new tracks and wheels see if I can get it going. It’s been sitting for 20 plus years.

Won’t let me post anything keeps saying something about tokens?

I’ve gotten that message before, I think it has something to do with file size. Try it again with maybe 4 pics max, and then post additional photos in a reply. Nice project, thanks for sharing!

Freed up and rolling lots of help from the twins. They can’t wait to drive it. Tracks ripped apart rims going for sand blast and powder coat. Found a few missing pieces. Any help on tires from anyone 4.50-16 ?

A friend of mine in northern Saskatchewan has one. A little later model with long windows and a 318 with an A727 auto trani. Great fun to drive.
