so strange to see a machine this old with all new glass

@theBLC420 ...or maybe just clean glass. I know what you meant though.. :-) Thanks for watching.

@Bevoin1970 lol, crazy to see a machine that old with a full cab and intact glass period honestly. Damn nice machine though.

sounds like the same motors I have in my boat. I have 2 1964 d333's ....i thought they used them in industrial applications too

[Bevoin1970]

That must sound very nice, as boats go I imagine...!!!

Superb footage there Paul, excellent quality and camera work, I laughed at the end when you had to make a quick exit, as it didn't look as though he had any intentions of stopping...ha..ha, saw your little baby at the beginning did you get it dirty?...5* Bob

[Bevoin1970]

I know he caught me out a treat, didn't know he was intending to come my way. I wished I hadn't switched the camera off, could kick myself for that. I never quite seemed to be in the right place when I filmed most of this series of films. I kept cursing myself... ha ha. Thanks for watching and rating Bob

Terrific Machine doing some awesome plowing 5*

[Bevoin1970]

Thanks Walter, this was a great machine to stand and watch in action. It really did have to work hard in that field, the ground was very hard and it was on a slope, so coming back uphill was extra hard going. Not bad going for an old girl...
