Here is a link to that page on his web site .   I thought prices were 
reasonable and the kits looked very professional .   I also bought one

   I also know he is on holiday for about five more days  .

the factory built but I could try . been  awhile , maybe I could get a 
action shot of it running the farmall .    Ivan
