are those claas decals waterslide type or just stickers ? look nice does that

had to else it doesnt take many implements

hmm ideal for fert spreading then

not sure if the design is that close a match ?

yes it is too long will have to see what else is about

thanks chaps nigel the plough is a siku gassner cut down to a 3f rev & finished in kverneland colours & will soon be on it's way to pullen farms along with a 4f rev

that looks nothing short of brilliant rob , i'll send mine on soon

thanks sean , 3070 wasn't it yes mart the cab chassis & bonnet is all thats left of the original 362

looks are decieving sean .trackwise if you look at the two together in the pics , the old wheel center of the tyre is just inside the edge of the mudguard & the UH centers are just outside the edge of the mudguard . so there really is just mm's in it for wheel spaceings

not having much choice where the linkage could be fitted, some implements dont quite go down to the ground like the plough for instance , but at least the front weight keeps her from dancing this tractor will more likely be used for haulage & feeding duties & maywell be one of the trimmer tractors , might even see if a loader can be fitted , just to nark tris off when he gets back :D

most may have seen my older attempts at a 'bigger than a 362 massey' by replaceing the front axle with one from an MF 2680 & new-ray rears , didnt look great , but not many of mine do :D the axle was a bit much for it come the end & snapped the chassis pin off & because the rear axle was a solid bar type &britains hyd lift lever was the intenal design the linkage was unable to work , so an elastic band was used , all gone now ! i thought id go CT style & do my own 390 rebuild :D :D front axle is now from a ford 5610, tims toys front wheels were drilled out to make use of the axle pins & for now a bolt has been threaded into the chassis the head will be ground down so's not to be so conspicuious because the tractor is so short ,front weights are from a ford 5610 & glued on the front & helps to keep the front wheels on the ground for use with heavier implments wheels from a tims toys deutz were used for the rear still on a solid bar axle , the elastic band & britains linkage has been removed & linkage from an old siku renault ceres has been fixed to the chassis

got any pics rob ?

genuinely surprised at that luke as being as heavy as they are they'd have been ideal on the hills around your way

what is ,Wales ?

not sure luke , i do see more 2680's about than the 2720's the 2640's seemed to be a popular choice for the 2wd option as well, having said that i used to drive a 2640 2wd & 4wd as does smurf had to get that in , as he hasn't posted a pic of his baby lately :D must admit though luke the 2620 4wd would be a cumbersome bit of kit for 95 hp

any pics of the skid steer scot then mart ?

easter me & egg are looking forward to it

pony's as well ?

the tractor is cast in two halves sean , mike i think i'm more likely to get wider fronts , i don't think i want to start cutting the cab mounts about stan

anymore news on this rob ?

stood next to the head tractor drivers tractor of years gone past

certainly changed it's appearance somewhat ! would have liked to of had them in closer but was restricted by the cab mountings under the mudguards would like some fronts to match ,but will have to wait for those , if i ever get round to changing them at all FORD 8670 next to a G240 still on the original wheels

bought some UH rears from pdc at toytrac with the view to booting up the ertl ford 8670 as always thought ertl wheels are very poor, tm810 also picked out some fronts from what looks to be from a NH TSa finaly got round to doing it

well they look pretty impressive anyway , but those tractors always did , once hauled alongside a friends 1594 fitted with mich MX's all round , looked very impressive in my eye's a good classic how much are these fetching at the moment ? anyone know ?

wheels & tyres all one peice you recon jas ?
