An Interested Spectator

Got this at Bath and West toy fair a while back. It had been completly squashed, the headlight 'jewel' was missing, and the rider was completley devoid of paint.

Got a 'jewel' from an old ploughing light, straightened the handle bars out as much as i could. Painted the rider, and used paint to pick out some of the deatil on the bike.

I know its not farm 'stuff' in it's self, but will back a nice background piece, and it is Britains and 1/32 scale.

A bit of video

No one has asked the key question, who's got the 1/32 licence for this one ?

Was nice to meet you Adie - I assume we are friends

Hey Sue, why not !!!

It's.....................................................ADRIAN.............................or Adie to my friends

Cheers...........er................

As the title says 10.30am start.

Covers all sorts, but more than enough farm stuff to make it worth while.

Check out Bulldog Toy Fairs on the interweb for more detail.

Really good model, nice one !

Only just seen these, some stonking kit there, thanks for the pics

Wanted to put a front linkage and oversize wheels on an MF 362 for some 1/32 paddock maintenance and mowing. The orgional Britains 362 chassis does not really lend itself to either, so I dumped the 362 body work on a Styer Kompakt chassis.

Pictured with some of the combination of implements to be used with it. (Sorry about the quality of the pics, could not get the flash to work, but you should be able to get the idea from these).

Was going to paint this one but thought the battered look suited it. Hope the primered wing works.

Always been a bit surprised at the lack of Landrover conversions, so thought I would have a go myself.

Got another variation that I am slowly working my way through.

Thanks to those who have relpied. If anyone can come up with some diamentions i would be very greatful.

Just been flicking through some old Classic Tractor mags.

Does anyone know what happened to the Ford 4000 bitsa tractor with the Fordson engine ?

Did it get finished, and, does anyone know if it's being used at all ?

Adie

Has anyone got anymore pictures of one of these ?

I am looking to make one of these at sometime in the future, so if someone could help me out with diamentions that would be great.

Cheers

Adie

Re the loader in the attached pictures, can anyone tell me which loader, if any, in the real world is closest to ? Also what if any is/was their house colours.

I have got one of these that I am looking to convert to somthing more akin to the real world.

Cheers

Adie

Very nice pictures, but clearly no gentleman, leaving the poor girl to lift those bags on her own !!!!

Nice one, lets hope UH manage to as well.

t'was in both.

The Danish contractors website has been around for a good number of years. Would love to be able to talk Rory into trying to do an article on them.

Adie

Wonderful, stunning detail.

Adie

Thanks for the info everyone.

Very interesting.

Adie

Dale,

It's the one with the tilting cab, so thanks for the info. Much appreciated.

Adie

Bought one today. Want to right hand drive it.

How do you get the cab of the chassis, and the interior out the cab without causing any damage ?

Adie

Have plans to "do up" one of these soon.

They are described as Deutz trucks. This is a new one on me. Did Deutz supply trucks in the UK. Or is there another truck make close to this model.

Basically I am trying to identify the nearest "real truck" to this model to get my detailing as near as I can.

Cheers in advance

Adie
