ford 8830

Does any one know how to remove the decals from britains 8560 without damaging the black plastic bonnet ???

the fendt is a good little model. paid ?15 so really good value. The detailing is first class 8) The front wheels are a little fragile but will not do much carpet farming with it ;)

Trip to martyns farm models last night and got doe 5000 uh fendt415 and jd 9530 Need more room 8)

Hi there anyone know where i can get some tm decals for a 8560 conversion im working on ???

Looks cool. I have cut the plough linkage off and shortened it to bring it nearer the tractor and lowered it so plough looks more real ;D ;D

Maybe i should get tracks put on my mower 8) That will the conversion for the weekend then : Now who makes 1-16 tracks??????

Yeah tris everyone good. Back to my mower for a while >

I have also got the cat tractor and drive real one and the colour match is very good 8)

My jd x740 ride on mower has done 864 hrs since last may when it was new. (24hp) Thats a lot of boring grass cutting sat out in the open ??? ??? ???

All is well Cat have agreed to pay 75% of the cost as they say there is a fault in the track :o The guy who came out said they had a few that just shredded recently? I really like the machine and will pull like a train. We have 6m solo and press hooked up in summer and she will cruise along at 8 k. :) The thing i do not like is all the rubber you leave on the road when you move. Need a ring fence farm The 580 tracks are good when its dry but this year had to do really shallow turns on headland to stop making tank trapps : Student kept falling in them ;D ;D

Thanks marky could do with an award ;D any would do 8) Should have spent the day on my mower cutting grass :) Always happens when you help out a mate ;D

Hpoe not my fault have not got ?5000 in loose change to pay for the new one :o Was just turning on the headland and she stopped lose of traction. Must have got something wedged in there :o Subsioling the beetland headlands so was not to hard for it on the plough. Juat one of those things i guess ???

Just had two hours relief dring to do and gone and trashed the tracks :o :o Just turned on headland and lost all forward momentum. Nice call to make ??? was the owner pleased???? have not heard back yet ???

ohhh yes britains did make a 8830 for just under one year in 1991. Product code 9321 in the powerfarm series. They are quite hard to find and have one mint in box and one in display case. You were both right about the other reason though. could not believe my eyes when saw mt765 nearlly fell over running to get to table as well :o :o Guy used to work for cat in europe and selling few gifts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 he had left over :D did not do lottery this week so have used up all my luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

a new menber for the collection today from a car boot. as new but no box ?20 :D Have read how to convert hitch as well so can hook up to lemken plough when it out. 8) Broken PB link repaired - MF

cool one tris she looks great. Get on to john and make a case for all four deeres. Made me want to get in the attick and get mine out.......................combine that is ;D ;D ;D rich

my favourite model would have to be the britains 8830. Just because this was the big tractor when i was young that i wanted to own for real. Mr purdues fords are the best for realism and also have pride of place. next model will be 1/16 ford 5000 from does which is on order. why fords, because my farther ran fords while he was farming so was brought up on 6600 and 10 series tractors. Lost the blue coat now as own jd lawncare equipment. That means i can buy more though!!!!!!!!!!! I also drive 580tt for the holiday and chalenger 865 so have to have models of those as well :)

:)hi there new member so i thought i would post some of my collection on here for all to see. richard the bottom link is the best picture will work on improving for you all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 as you can see blue is the main colour and still the best although green and yellow has started to ingress into my blood. The red ones are probably going as they just spoil the colour scheme. I have lots more but just no room to place out.
