you mean you camped in the french manufactures car park ?

do you think you might want to post this invaluable advice in hints & tips rob

got to be a bit carefull about what was right at the time , as the 130 was released with square dishes , as for grafting , do UH have a department that specialises in spare parts sales ? i think it's the only way to salvage a relatively good model marky, even then the pavt wheels wern't a standard option

:D quality post rob :D must admit i have a pic of a 595 here & i'm counting my fingers & your theory isn't quite working out here either \ 595 5wd not right is it

i think the only way to salvage this little dear would be to graft mudguards, seat & rear wheels from a 35x

thanks for the preview sean , , took a while to get there , but 3 weeks ? & how much red bull & swearing outstanding sean top marks chap well worth the time spent on that :) :)

oh yes thats a 135 alright , unfortunately if you look from the front of the tractor it quite batantly merges into a 240 from the steering wheel back, i think they'd be better off recasting a 240 bonnet . i think the genuine MF collector will buy it simply because it being released but i don't think it's one they'll put at the front of the collection i think the 35x with a 135 bonnet & dash would have been enough to be passable for most collectors , finding fault with that would be someting but to see a tractor that just isn't right at any angle is poor ,coming from the people who are usually 99%on the mark i'm surprised , a good model will be let down by poor research :'(

hey if i knew more , i'd say more , but i can only pass on information that i know

yes rather some good stuff appearing from your goodly self , like that

if you spray any ford tractor pre sq cab then the colour needs to be lighter , ford decided to use a darker blue when the 2nd gen 10 series tractors came out

think you might get away with extanding to body nash but as it is it's more a four wheeler length , move the axles back & fit a hi-ab behind the cab , would give it that bit of extra length, other than that it has turned out well

looks good A but i really think the wheels need putting to the rear much more

that looks great stephen , simple & effective

likeing that stevo , the only thing that would come second to that would be a good woman or a bad one depending on what you want

some fantastic articulaters there chap, like that lots :)

with those wheels on there she looks more like a 175 / 190 mate :)

likeing the two 6265's in the pics mate , get those tyres on the model roughed up a bit , & you'd struggle to tell which was the real deal !

hmmm i wonder what happened to that massey 290 with the engine fitted the reverse way round ?

with those size wheels on mate the boinnet looks ok , maybe the 6 cyl conversions look too short , nice use of the water for the reflection

darn thats some good going , bit too fiddly for me though ,

thought it looked familliar , finished up rather nicely mate well done

well there's yer rabe , sorted , just need a kverneland on the go now , job well done chap

nice work mate & beat me to it , wsas going to fit some LP tyres on some of minr but i haven't got any spare throuble is those tyres chunk it out so much it looks bigger than it actually is i reckon on leaving it as a 350 / 362 :)

very good idea paul

have you any other breeds there mandy ? appart from 1000 red warrens at the farm we kaept bufforpingtons & silky bantams home here , the buffs are a beautifull bird
