What a difference, especially with the wheels closer to the tractor. It seems like Ertl spaces them just a bit too wide on some of the 1/64th models as well. Not to sound like a complaint because I enjoy modifying them.
Swaping batteries in my truck and working on the mess the previous owner of my truck left me. Sure enough I need a new battery a few weeks before I get ready to sell it. Oh well, at least the new owner will have one less thing to worry about.
Awesome finds, I really like the bidirectional and cotton picker brochures. I will have to search for my own copies now, I have a Ford 9030 brochure but the versatile ones look neat I do not know why but I have a fascination with cotton pickers. Maybe its because we don't grow cotton this far north and I have never seen a real machine.
Another great update. The Kuhn power tiller is another neat model. I saw a real one used for the first time this summer when we put in a new polo field. Not too common for agricultural use here but it did a fantastic job.
It does leave it rough and I found that my materials did apply easier on the rougher sections vs. the smooth sections. I have been playing with it a bit more and it is great for making ponds and ditches. The worst part is the clean up because the foam shavings seem to stick to everything. ;D
Welcome aboard, that vintage tractor run sounds like a neat pastime. Hopefully it is still going on, its always nice to see old machinery out and about.
