Cat-Peter, thats an excellent looking machine for the amount of hours on it. You should be proud to be able to say that you put that many hours on it to have it look almost new. :drinkup
You got any close-ups of the Roto-Tilt on the new machine?

Just because a machine has been very well taken care of does NOT mean that it hasn't been worked hard. A good operator takes care of his, or her, equipment. When I see a machine in that good a condition with 8,000 hrs., I don't immediately go thinking "Oh, that musta been repainted".
Boy, didn't see that coming. Thats in B.C. again, right?
