Found this Case backhoe a while back ,emailed a sales rep ,said they had two on hand ,may be sold out,last Oct when I checked on it.http://www.outbacktoystore.com/Anniv...Loader-Backhoe

Whoa pump tech...that is NICE! Hadn't seen that before. If I bought one of these it would mostly be for inspiration - too small to convert to RC at 1:16.
The JD 710 is a monstor hoe (that's mostly why I picked it)...a 1:14 scale 710 will be same size as a Case 580 and most other hoes in 1:12. Thanks for the link! JB
