Here's an old 950 Versatile that I rigged up with a blade. I tried to make her look old and used like its been working hard for the last 30+ years. The blade is off an old caterpillar packer. I tried to make this tractor replicate some of the old Versatiles in our area with blades on them. Enjoy the pics.
The Blade lifts up and down. Hyd cylinders are off an old front end loader.
Here are some pictures of it packing silage.

That looks really good! But it looks like you have some spoilage in your stack...

It looks great, I really like the weathering, what is the Blade from?

Thanks for the comments. Ya the stack looks like it's time for a new one. It doesn't look like this tractor was kept inside very often lol. The blade was off a I think 1/25th scale cat road packer. It was an old sandpile toy and all I had left of it was the blade.

Cool Project, your weathering looks really good. I've seen a few of them old versatiles like that where decals were starting to wear off and the frame was getting some rust on it.

Impressive weathering job, really like the texture you got on the exhaust! Do you have a fence row made for it yet?
