If it was mine and I did not want to restore it then I would at least advertise it in the back of the Classic Plant rag to see if anybody else was interested rather than letting her see the gas axe.
Nice pics BTW.

I'm pretty keen now actually. We've got about 18 acres and a half mile long dirt track to work, so it can certainly still do a job. To realise any decent money i'd have to at least get it running moving and the blade going up and down so I may as well fix er up and use it.
The cab work is pretty simple really, a few sheets of 2mm a grinder and my welder will have that serviceable. I've a contact that can cut and harden glass for me and the door and other bits are still knocking round in the ditch behind the house!
It was all working when it threw the track so i'm going to hope there isn't thousands of pounds of mechanical work to do. Change all the fluids out, run her up again and free off the stuck lever. Track on..
It'll be that easy
Just got to finish the 3CX first.
