  3. Hi all......has anyone ever built or has a 1/32 Muir Hill 121. These were a favourite of mine when I was younger. Big, Yellow and Loud. Fantastic
  4. Fantastic job there Barry. Really good to see someone helping people like myself who are just starting out. Can you tell me how you glazed the cab as I would love to glaze some of my Fords. Many thanks and again well done. Colm
  5. Hi all....can anyone tell me is there what are the differences in the Universal Hobbies Claas 3300 and Claas 3800. I have a 3800 and would like to get a 3300. Many thanks Colm
  6. All looking good there Brian. Mengele all the way..........
  7. Thanks everyone...I think I know what models I will be going for. Colm By the way, would like to post up some of my own collection. Can someone advise me on how to do this.
  8. Hi all......wanting to buy a couple of the Britains Case tractors but dont know much about Case. Would like to buy the larger/high hp models as I like the bigger style tractors to go with tankers etc. Many thanks for your help in advance. Colm
  9. Hi all....I have seen a couple of MB Trac 1500s with fatter tyres on the original rims across the forum but I dont know how to do this conversion myself. Can anyone help me on this one as I want to convert a couple of mine. Many thanks Colm
  10. Hi all.....I have just got my hands on a New Britains Farm Master and also an older 416 Farm Master. These look ok but I want to add a few more details to each one. What I need to know is, can anyone recommend better wheels for both models. I want something a little chunkier. Has anyone done either of these models before. I would be grateful for any advice. Many thanks Colm
  11. Models look fantastic there mate. How did you fit the chunkier tyres to the slim rims in the first picture, would love to try this myself. Colm
  12. You could try Britains Unimog wheels. I think they are the same as the dumper wheels and more easily got.
  13. Looks fantastic there mate. Makes mine look poor. Can I ask what wheels and front axle you used and how do you glaze the cab considering the front window has to bow. I just wish mine looked half as good. Well done there and look forward to you future projects. Colm
  14. Hi Paul....there is one on ebay this evening. Its ending about 8pm if you are interested. Sorry dont know how to put up a link yet. Colm
  15. Hi all.....can anyone tell me if there is a conversion drawbar for the new Britains silage and grain trailers. The drawbar the come with is awful. I have heard there are some out there and I would really like to get a few. If anyone does know please let me know where and contact details of who is selling them. Many thanks. p.s is there anywhere on the site to display more of my collection so I can get some feedback on my conversions.
  16. Hello everyone. I have just registered to the forum from the advise of a friend. Cant get over the amount of detail on the site and help there is out there. I live in the Co.Down area and have been collecting mostly Britains models pre-1999 for the best part of 3 years now. (takes me back to my childhood years when I broke most of mine, oh only if I had of kept them). Over the past year or so I have started converting models and am finding it a fantastic past-time. I am looking forward to talking to you all and hopefully maybe get a few pics of my conversions up to share with you all. By the way my signature picture is one of my conversions, a Ford 8730 with duels all round, Siku weight block and Jewel lights. Let me know what you think.
