Title: GHQ's "Red" HO manure spreader #60-002 question?
Post by: jbvb on February 10, 2025, 12:18:04 PM
GHQ's "Red" spreader is said to follow an International Harvester prototype.  I've had the kit for years; I got stuck trying to identify the "brake lever" in step 2.  If possible, could I see a photo of the underside of a finished model, or the parts sprues with the brake lever called out?

A closer look reveals the brake lever already glued to the body casting.  Sorry.  I'll report on progress as it happens.

Huh, here I thought this was an inappropriate political comment :-) :-)
