liking the shed david , the corn bins look a treat as well

one of those new style 64 series masseys , sorry but that grill just has to go

looking forward to this :)

too tall ? that maybe so but, it looks so much better with those wheels on mike , anyone thought of putting some britains floats on one ? over to you now sean

the pipe on the left is from the blower unit & the right one is for the vacum unit second pic is all the gubbins underneath , here you see the pipe conected for blowing , but on the right is the pipe used to suck & fill the vacum box & back into the lorry body , the levers are to controll everything , the only bad thing about this lorry is that there is no means of tipping the body from the rear.

for the bussiness part of the lorry , here is the blower unit (blue) housed between the chassis rails & under the air reservoirs . if i can get to one pipe distance away from the bin this blower will rattle off 10T of cattle nuts in 15 mins , unfortunately deliveries like this are very few & far between next is the reverse unit for the vacum box to allow the truck to be used as a sucker ,to empty bins of stale or contaminated feed

A well worn 3080 & 690 & loader

inthe background of the last pic was this little feller, a 4835 next farm, a 185 used for scraper duties

a few for mart , TS135a & loader, TL100

steve , this is a 5 stage ram , the end of the ram is attatched to a top sleeve ,the bottom of the sleeve is bolted to the body via a hinged collar to allow the ram to articulate slightly at the bottom of the ram is the oil reservoir, attatched to the chassis by two brackets for it to pivot. the two pieces of metalunder the brackets are not to build the height up ,but are weigh sensors for the onboard weigher

not spot on but the red plastikote is a good match for any massey refurbishment the plastikote silver is a good alloy trailer body as it gives a dull shine not a brilliant shine the black plastikote is good for chassis best bit about these plastikote sprays are that they are very quick drying

ah , ni used to keep an old buckraketine in the front weights for that & it was used for many other things ,like when someting needed some gentle persuadeing :D

it is at the moment finn, i need to take the 5th wheel pin part of the chassis down , as it slopes too much , the wheels are not yet set as i need to set about my boxes to find the wheels i want to fit !

thanks finn & thanks for posting the explanation of how the truck 'n' pup works :) best post the pic of F-P b0ll0cking tris for loosing the air kit :D

at least i wasn't the only one then my bosses thought i was mad sticking insulation tape on all the tractor windscreens ! blue for 12m m ,red for 24m

the extra signwriting were from a peel off sticker pack , & are available from most craft shops ,

the trailer & bulker were primed & then resprayed using plastikote silver

the trailer body is still in tact but minus the wheels , , & two krampe tri axles were cut to build the trailer

scania

given a bit of time , she'll be fitted out as a bulk blower

as she is now as a bulk tipper , a tri axle krampe was used

server ate the last topic posted for these \ heres the before's & afters

is the 3ftx3ft behind the door mike ? as remember you have to get in & out of the room :D maybe a shed to be used as a dealership , as i'm sure you have plenty of machines to fill the yard

is that deer poo on the ground in pic 1 ?
