  1. I moderate the farm toys section on another forum and I am trying to help another member with a model. this is the info I was given:

    Hello All,

    I have a die cast model of a Ferguson tractor with box.On the box says ;MANUFACTURE FOR HARRY FURGSON,INC DETROIT MI.BY ADVANCE PRODUCT COMPANY, CLEVELAND OHIO.

    The box is tore a little but holds up well. I am trying to put a date on when it was manufactured.Any help out there?

    Any help greatly welcomed. thanks,

    AC WD45

  2. I bought this truck at a walmart...I know right? Anyways, The moment I saw it, I saw major potential. It's made for Bass Pro Shops.

    First thing I did was built the tool box.

    Then came skid plates and detail on the lift kit:

    Then came dual exaust. I wanted stacks but It was them, or a tool box.

    Thanks for looking!

  3. Ertl is realeasing a AC D19 and Oliver 1950T later this year and a Agco DT300 sometime late/early next year......there will prob. also be a MF 8680 also....

    Could someone please tell me where you are getting this info? I didn't see anything on their site, but Agco, Allis Chalmers, and MF would be greatly welcomed back.

  4. I wasn't aware they even existed... what a brilliant idea... I'll take a 'winterised' MF1080 then please Mr Ertl  ;D

    Ya, they started in 2002 when ERTL introduced Precision #18 John Deere 720 with loader, heat houser, blade, and tire chains. Then again in 2006 when they released the one you see pictured above.

  5. I got this Idea after the 830 idea but I'd love to see an annual winter themed tractor offerd with a Heat Houser, snow chains and either a loader or blade, or both. It seems like it'd be a good idea, considdering the fact that every winter themed tractor you guys have offerd seems to seel like crazy thus making them a pain to get a hold of.

  6. well. I mentioned this a while back and never got around to posting pics. Here we have my International 1466. Custom parts include rear flat-topped fenders, sun-shade, and over'sized duar rear tires.

    And here we have the John Deere loader that I made using an international 3444 bocket, an axel from a hay wagon converted to a wood wagon, and 1/4'' copper pipe. I still need to make hydro' arms for it.

    Here is my weatherbreak for my soon to be restored john deere model ?****?. It it side entry. The tires are from a John Deere 4440

    I had to go to the family room for better lighting, pluse I still needed a flashlight.

  7. Well, the past few years I have been busy building snowplows. Everything except the cabs tires, tire chains and wheels are molded from a resin plastic. I documented the process(hey i was bored ;D)

    At this point, I wasn't shure if the front plow was going to be a Vplow or one-way.

    It was a V! It was just sitting infront of the truck when the photo was taken.

    This thread took like an hour. I have more of the process of building another ploe, but haven't finished it yet. I will post them in this same thread instead of creating another.

    Hope you like them!
