An old tractor you usually see in beaches in NZ. These rickety old things are usually used for pushing boats in and out of the water.
This little chugger took around 6-7 hours to build. It is very user friendly. It's a bit fast, but it is very bad at climbing hills. [I wish there were custom gear boxes!] Anyway, very fun to drive around.
Pitch and roll controls. Working accelerator, break and gear lever. Also has a cool tractor turning system!
Enjoy!

Also should I build this thing next? It's a tractor at a beach I go to.

    Looks like a 1970s Ford or Massey-Harris...

    Yes, you do see them a Lot! I used to live at the beach, and they were almost as common as Cars! People use them because they don't get stuck in the sand easily. nice Build!
