Hello,

well, so far it looks like a very good job!!! Do you have some more detailed pictures?? Would be very interesting.
Regadring to the painting, my suggestion: Why don't you paint it to its original colours?

HELLO GUYS
PLEASE ADD THÄ°S TREAD ONLY STRANGE PÄ°CTURE FOR YOUR TRAC

Hi,

what´s this? Did you buy your fourth trac? Or is it one of your "old" 3 ones? It looks like bad behaviour. Which jobs do you have to do at this machine to make it running well?

That are very nice pic´s, not an every-day-situation!!!

I find it very respectfully work you´re doing! In Germany, I think, it´s rather easy to collect an repair this machines. But in Turkey, I think, it´s much more difficult. This machines are much more seldom there than here in Germany.

If you have questions, feel free to ask! And if you want some translation of some words, just ask.

I looked in your topics but I didn´t find you name? In this Forum we usually call each other with our first (sure) name, sometimes with our nickname like mine.

Greetings Cliff (usually Christoph)

Hello christoph
Nice to meet you my friend, my name is Sükrü Kara from turkey and living capital ANKARA and now I have 3 tracs and that picture on fliying my last trac, I already finished restorate only the small things waiting for me to fix but this mount I am planing to add 2 tracs in my collections (trac 800)
you also right for guessing about difficult to repair and finding parts in my country becouse in my country only the goverment forestry bought them for to prepare forest area and when I bought for my first trac, it was realy difficult for me to repair it about searching parts, repairing, etc but now after 3 tracs I am getting proof on that
anyway this is my short story about tracs
aaa I FORGOT TO TELL tommorow I am starting to add turbocharger for my 2 tracs (1000-1100) , I hope I can do it best power and cheaper
greetings sukru...like to spell sugar

I read somithing like you are a constructeur. Are you an engineer for machinery? Or are you constructeur for buildings? And where is your workshop, when you are living in Ankara?
You seem to me very enthusiastic about tracs. So in Germany such people have some "problems" with their girlfriends / wife´s. Like "how stupid, man an machines!!!" Is it the same in Turkey?

How old are you?

Hello guys
I am thinking to fix turbocharge for my 2 tracs (1000 and 1100), I was searching picture abot this on net but I found not more, if anybody has some picture about fixing turbocharge , please add it in this tread for us to help
kind regards

[SNOWMAN]

Jassu sukru,
Something different where did u study on Cyprus, nicosia or Limassoll?

Cheers andre

[Cliffde]

Hey Sukru,

you do a good job to the machines. But it looks a bit strange for most of us. In Germany most people who restorate tracs do great efforts to keep them original or to rebuilt them to originality.
So it looks bit strang with a yellow panel, yellow lamps or a chrome self made cooler frame.
But i don´t want to criticize you. When a trac is saved from the steel press it´s not important how it is coloured.
And I see, especially you have much more difficulties to do this job than one of us! Respect anyhow, really!!!

Keep going on!!!!

Greetings Cliff
