This is our second Big Bud on the farm and has been working the fields since 1981. After many thousand hours the original Cummins engine had low compression and was starting to fail. Rust was replacing paint and the cab interior showed its age. After deciding to do a rebuilt we came across a 1984 Versatile 1150 with an excellent engine but bad transmission. After looking into our options we decided this would be the perfect power plant for our Big Bud. This project took over 3 months, between 3 guys, and the result were more than we hoped for. I hope you sit back and enjoy a glimpse of what it took to make this beast live again.\r

The time-lapse was done using Gopro Hero 3 cameras and a self built slide for the sweeping effect. Needs a little work but overall it made for a spectacular high speed view.\r
