Dom, that is impressive!
And with the front blade instead of a loader it is something different indeed. Well done!

Glad you like it and thanks for the comments.
In short I purchased it for scrap value as no bids when on E-bay- Late December 2005 from memory, here in Sydney Australia. From the 500 plus photo's I took during the rebuild I can determine it took up all my spare time for 16 months.
Luckily the weather here in Sydney allowed me to work outdoors most of the year as I had no cover for it here at home. Total rebuild including the engine, on my own with heaps of help from the guys on the fordsontractorpages as well as 3 lengths of gal pipe and a block & tackle.

Regards???.Dom
