It has come up very nice, Iron Horse, but I keep thinking, you must have too much free time.

Proper job !

 

[Iron Horse]

Thank you quantum and stock , it was a big job . I had accumulated a heap of small dents on the cab and the fibreglass toolbox had a chunk missing . The repairs and the endless masking were wearing thin . And every time i looked up , the skies were getting grey and i'd have to stop .

Thanks also RnR , yes it is quiet at the moment . The only time the phone rings is when some bloody Indian wants to give me a "free" phone . One rang yesterday and told me my phone number was very lucky and it had been chosen to recieve a free phone . I said thats great , but i have one . I said , have you got any children ? He said yes cautiously . I said good , they can have it , i'm giving it to them.........But sir , i cannot do that !

looks good reg, much better than the previous colour. land clearing is hard on the paint/panels, both of mine have several small dents and scratches.im jealous about the free phone, no one is offering me one. i have had some calls though offering me a advice on share trading where they say i'll make a fortune, have also had some from a tipping service offering easy money betting on race horses. they claim you cant lose ??

 

[Iron Horse]

I had the same race tipping scammers ring me . I said if it's so good , why don't you put all your money on one of your sure thing's and get rich overnight , instead of trying to scam me for money ?????

Good morning Iron Horse, that's what I tell them, as well, a few years back, a bloke from some finance mob from New York would ring me all the time, wanting me to invest and make a fortune. I said if it is so good, why don't you invest yourself, why would you worry about making money for me. As for the phones, if I hear the Indian voice after the delay, I just hang up, but I know a lot of people put the phone down and walk away, then it costs the telco mob money, while their operator is waiting.

i asked the same thing and he said they had made stacks of money and wanted to share it with others. i told him i would feel bad using their system because it would eventually send all the bookmakers broke and ruin the racing industry and i did not want that on my consience.gee they are a bunch of blood sucking crooks.

The sad part about it Pete, is that they keep sucking people in and usually those that can least afford it.

That's what amazes me is people still fall for the Nigerian scams.

I have $3M dollars that I need to deposit in an American/Australian bank account. What I need you to do is deposit x amount of dollars in an account that has both our names on it to get the process started. Oh BTW, we can't tell anyone about our deal.

Greed to some folks is like the curiosity that killed the cat.

 

[Iron Horse]

I hav'nt told a soul about the deal but i still hav'nt heard back from them . What does it all mean ?

.......some decals to break it up , but i'm sure you will agree , it beats the heck out of the red .

Looks really smart and yes I agree the novelty had worn off the pillar box red

What decals are you going to put on it? I have access to some Case 1088 decals if you need them

Thank's mate , you think the Case decals will make it go better ?

The machine is a 230E , as in 23 tonne . And as it has a 6BT Cummins engine , i was thinking 230E with Cummins Powered below it and put on the Grey area on the engine door . The Volvo it is coppied from has it's model numbers in that place . I also want to get the safety decal kit to keep it OHandS compliant , "keep clear of swing area" etc . I'm told i also need to put , "stay back 300 feet" on the boom . And of course my Iron Horse logo's and phone numbers .
