Chris.
Has it been a boat tractor. Guards and rims have that look about them?
Wheres the pto shaft gone to?
She doesn't look too bad as she is. Won't take too much to tidy up.

Nice looking Major Chris :)

TAD working overtime this week, I think my basket case Nuffy M4 has just found a new owner, but it'll take a lot of work before it looks as good as yours does now.............

Those luxury plastic seats are all the rage on the beach tractors hereabouts but never look too stable riding :clap:

Yes, especially because that smiley doesn't really reflect how it feels sitting on it while driving.

And,also, the orange is painted in the wrong place!!!!
