Hey oppos, I’m still around, just been wasting my precious internet time watching the political meltdown. Right now I’m warming up a diesel truck so I can pull the dash apart without breaking too much.
one of my scruffy old bodyman friends is restoring one of these as a surprise for his dad. he’s making one out of 2 and a half. Of course when 3/4 done he went to look at some parts and came home with this glorious survivor with just a beautiful balance of original shine and 45 year patina. Sleds aren’t my deal but I like old things that are nice and which function. (don’t quote me but: 1969ish ski whiz, 595cc single lung banger, tractor parts, orange. )

That’s a nice rig. Got a very similar look to a Massey big tractor we had for a while, probably an early 70s 255 - was kind of like this:
Nice Advance Design in the background there, is it one we’ve seen before?

no, it’s been sitting outside the shop for years, kind of forgot it was there, it’s a 49 half ton, runs, has a grain chute cut into the box side. To be built for mrs Big Al. (who drove a first gen mr2 when he met her)
