IH885XLMAN

Could you not get a shot of the fatal leg

Its on youtube a little grainy but of all tractors in the film they never show the mf 550 crashing i dont think it did and there was no need to see it crashed they only needed to demonstrate a runaway

That 4wd looka like the one off the health and safety film "know your tractor know your ground" the last accident where the drive runns up tbe verge and trys to get out but gets mouse trapped and dies

Thats lovely i remember on the farm i spent loads of days on they had nothing but mashes 674 on ransomes elevator digger Also one on conventiomal bailing with a class 2 x 784s like yours above one on a tanko front oader for flat 8s and potato boxes The other on the halm topper

Wow they are nice liking the sekura 784 allot

John you need to speak to rory day and get these builds in classic tractor mate

Im.foaming at the mouth so many gems

Ild love a cat i think it was a IT12 or 930 cant remember now but it was fun on the soil moveing on the spud grader

Im guessing its kinda like a chef thing He would rather make his own take on currie than to have some one else mass produce it If were talking ERTL JD 3140 Sekura cabs I got one too also i dont know if most of you know but the green top to those ertl cabs look too shallow Take a look at the IH 784 cab i know the lengh and width aint the same but the depth looks better on the 784 cab top Would it be possable to buy a sekura cab off you john when ur happy with the casting i dont mind in 3 or 4 pice either mate

I know there's a difference between the 1390 and 1290 power rabbit might vouch for me here im sure the 1290 cabs were different also the marshalls were slightly shorter but i always thought the deluxe sekura fitted on dbs ih jds and ap cabbed fords were all standard but maybe I'm wrong though by the way its looking good mate

Wow your gifted mate dont supose you cold knock up a 74 style ih bonnet for me to fit on a ertl 784

Is that a new IH Worldwide tractor in the fore ground john ??

Hold the phone just a min john is that a case ih transitional 885 xl ????

I never tire of this topic or site

Wow you realy have done wonders sean on that flexi cab i like it u could go into mass production with them pal

Looks the part sean see that lovely wee 550 in the background I hope to make two one day did u use uh 230 chassis for her or traditional Britains 135 sean ??

Hi sean nice to see its still going mate

Blast from the past and a very nice one what wheels did you use on this fine model ?

I can just wash paint off if i have to sean so i might actualy try that techneque lovin the 550 by the way i remember doing one based on a 135 ten years ago with 595 bonnet if i remember u gave me the decals to it

Want it to look like this eventualy

Im way behind you on this sean wondeeing weather or not to paint the white on like in the photo or cut and shape the white then glue it on ummmmmmmmm

Ive been thinking the same but then i thought would the rear fenders and cab be best grafted onto a scaledown david brown 990 but your right those wheels suit it better and the front axel needs improveing on them as u say but they arnt a model they are a toy so they aint as bad a value to me even though on ebay they are going up in value already

Love to see you do a 885 xl out of a repliagri black fender ih 845 and a ertl 784 it would be mint done by you mate

12 glorious hours ahead of me driving classic tucks around the Shrewsbury and Oswestry area these trucks range from nearly new to a 1994 m reg 143 midliner with rear tag or shall I drive a y reg volvo ummm mm the decisions that face me ha
