Martin,
Thanks for sharing the pictures, I'd heard that Karl was planning to clear up the old junk in his yard, I was therefore surprised to see that your 125 was still in one piece!

Hello David
That old Drott moved a fair bit of earth,the scraper was filled quite a few times by the 955.A few hundred tons. Can't wait to get the 933 ready now,will be resprayed in the Spring.May be adding a D4 to the fleet if things work out right.Plaster comes off next week,hope to be fully fit soon.
Cheers
Martyn

Hi king ,i dont take the old girl very far ,but i usually drive it on the road to our local show which is 5miles away,with escort,we get plenty of looks!.The scraper is donkey start ,and i was very lucky to rescue her from the gas axe! about 3 years or so ago,as the yard had just cut the belly plate off on a friday afternoon then ran out of gas just as i arrived,it was her lucky day!i have used it on my own place for about 3weeks work in total and she runs like a watch .cheers sprocket.
glad you were able to save the machine. driving it on the narrow roads must be fun. thansk for sharing.
