^{Great job of scratch building. Detailing on the hydraulics is excellent. It looks real sharp. What are you planning to attach the scraper blade to?}

hi All,

Thank you for your nice words.Carl,the tractor is a IH 1466 farm tractor.I'm weathering it now so when I install the rear blade I can then weather the whole project.it is removable as well so I can put other 3 point hitch equipment on it.the tractor has a front end loader on it like we used on the farm to clean pens and load all kinds of stuff in it.Thank you,Chris

Good stuff, Chris, but now we need to see the 1466 and how your did the loader. Ag models in 1/25th scale are so very rare. Too bad The old Ertl tractor kits haven't been re-issued.

Thanks

Carl
