I have now started on the paint preparation on this machine.Over the next few weeks,weather permitting, it will be getting a fresh coat of paint.

She is pretty good Jim.Could do with a dry spell when I am not in work so I can progress the projects.Wish I had a workshop to do them up in.

Done a bit more on the 933G. Paintwork and decals on the right side of the machine.Poor weather put things on hold again.

Hi Martin

What engine does your 933 have i have a cat d3 79u last time started 4 years ago how easy are parts to come by.

Thanks Lee

I have sold the 933 and is now in a museum.The engine fitted was a D320 turbo, I think,my memory is crap
Parts were not that bad to get hold of.Finning hold stock but can be expensive.Its easy if you have a parts bock as the guys at finning can cross reference the part numbers.

did haulage for a firm w.sears & sons ltd. in blackburn in the 1970s.he demolished by pulling with a wire rope and did litteraly hundreds with one of these old birds.he tore the old thing to bits for over 2 years and only main fault was the running gear.very powerful little machine.levertons at wigan always had parts.
