Thanks Norman :wave: they both still look great :thumbup: the 675 Hy-Lift crane was based on the Hymac 610/610C wheeled excavator only 45 were ever made.

Just hope you manage to keep em alive Norman; I will come up and get some more photos of the 675 when the time permits but I have been rather busy this last year to be fair the 580BT takes up a lot of my spare time although I am slowly progressing with it.
