    If it's got tracks, wheels, t*ts, or an engine, at some point it's gonna give you trouble!!

        MG IIRC MUz, with the track drives 'out' as opposed to inward.
        you wanna watch out for the sparky though, with yer bum that close to the motor on a wet day

              Very Nice Job of Restoring the machine .Would not think there would be too many of them on the show circuit .
              See a few Ransome Crawlers about out here in OZ {There is one on the side of the road for sale a couple of miles from home }, But i have never seen a dumper out here .
