Our good friend "00" Biddle contacted me about painting up his track loader. As I am on a strict budget since x-mas ....(binge parts purchases

).....I agreed ...... reluctantly

no kidding .... he had to twist my arm ....
As most of you know, Travis is a bit of a CAT

..... So even though his loader isn't it will be soon ..... sorta ......
So here's a before picture ....
and the parts all painted .....
Hadn't taken any pics on the tear down - sorry all - so here's a start to the build up ...
Contacted our good friend "tc1cat" (Lynn) about some lathe work ..
.. just couldn't figure to put all those bolts in where good clevis pins should go....
thanks for lookin'
