Hi,
The "Krapmatsu" in the last but one post reminds me of one I used to run in the early 90s.
It was pretty rough when I bought it, I sorted it out and it turned out to be a brilliant tool. Another bonus was my Priestman 2-18 buckets fitted straight on. Before and after pics. below.

If you blow up the photo you just about make out the alo at the end of the name. I did think that the squarish grill came out later than a K plate.

On a second look I see that it is higher than the original Ergo cab.
