Cheer's, Neil.
The D10 was a hoax and the guy who took alot of peoples money are very upset with him for not producing them. There has been discussion of this on the ACMOC board a few years ago.
I did a job for a guy who owned a foundry in TN. around 1994 who was supposed to pour the castings but the whole project fell through. I thought I would be able to get my hands on some of those unfinished castings back then and possibly build my own.

Neil, the 1 Joe posted up was fetured in a circular that my cat dealer sends out around the time we got 1 of the first 416 backhoes in our area ( I think 2nd ) . I've been looking for 1 ever since then I think late "80's" early "90's"
