    cool vid, the one 37 c looks like a homemade cab under the rops?

    Looks like an old "soft" cab from before the ROPS came out. On some of those older machines the ROPS canopies were retrofitted after the machine had been working for a while.

    i ran a 37c with only a rops, but when the weather turned cold we had a big piece of plywood with a door, and a hole cut into the firewall, i got pretty efficient at swapping the front fran around, if the wind wasnt really bad it would stay pretty warm as long as you kept busy, keep the vids coming
