Hi John ,  It was certainly ugly when you and Brad got it . A coat of paint certainly works wonders . Well done Brad .

Nice! Looks like an HG with an Allis engine I'm guessing? Or was it assembled by a company in the Down under?

Which Massey Harris engine do they use? I know the 4 wheel drive Massey used an OOC Hercules. Not sure if any of the others used Hercules or not. I think some used Continentals.
