Dont look bad ... the bucket lever, the one in the middle looks a bit wonky, looks like it will interfere with the loader lift lever ... a bit of weld on the backhoe, and looks like the slew housing on the king post is spewing oil or could be grease, bit to dark really for grease maybe ... and the paint work with wishy washy yellow ... cab looks shot at the bottom, but thats normal for the age i guess ...

Thanks for the once over Martyn. So does that translate as good for the money, or a money pit?!
