Recently added a 4wd Nuffield 4/60 built by Cenfyn Davies to my Nuffield/Marshall cabinet. Just in need of some Bathgate blue now.

Thank you mate, little bit small of a setting for what's coming up but it works for the small stuff 😂 I dread to think how long itl take to grt your collection all out
Anytime mate.
Precisely why mine are tucked away in cabinets and not on a diorama 
........plus I don't have the skill or patience to create anything like that in the first place.

I would be quite amazed at your haul David, but then I know what you are like at a show. You must have been straining at the leash for the last couple of years 😁
Definitely Mike.
Nice to be finally back at a show, and with no Lakeland or Zwolle, Newark was always going to be the show this back end I treated myself to a few things. Working all weekend in an official capacity has helped lessen the dent in my bank balance too.

😆😆 well i did ask him to do me another 1 off build,like my county hes done me , but i suspect he’s forgotten ,busy boy after all keeping you happy 😀.
He's certainly a busy bloke. He's just finished developing the long wheel base County 1184-TW for people to order. I've probably spent more pennies with him this year than anyone else, absolutely love the models he builds.

hell of a shopping list,but that 4000 will be a peach for sure
It's very rare a day goes by where i'm not pitching ideas or sending Ian photos to study for future builds for other people, not just me.😀
Can't wait to see 4000 when its done.

whats next on your ever growing list of tabs then mate?
Duncan cabbed Roadless Ploughmaster 98, 78, 65 and an export spec 78. I've also asked Ian to build me the Ford 4000 my Dad was brought up on from the photo below when my Dad was 14. My Dad added the E27N toolbox to the front. Plan is to surprise him at Christmas with it.

Fantastic project you're putting together here James. Great work. Looks similar to a Browns kit possibly.

It looks to be a 1/16 alright David. They have it mixed in with the 1/32s here tough. I was thinking was it a 1/32 ERTL that never made here from across the pond.
Can only assume they didn't have a pre-production or mock-up model of the actual 1/32nd Britains version and had to use the Ertl MX to represent it in the catalogue.

Looks like a 1/16th scale Ertl model.

Each to their own if someone wants to pay that much for one I guess, could think of a lot more models in front of one of those i'd rather spend £100 on though. I'm thankful I paid £19 for mine in Zwolle when they were being sold off cheap in large numbers circa 2018/19.

Would that be Roy Leetham, David a very talented custom builder indeed
Correct Jon, absolutely loved seeing his models over the years. Also loved the fact he built a lot of big old American tractors you don't see at all in 1/32nd scale.

That's a nice haul.
Thanks Justin, admired these conversions for many years, mainly when they were displayed by the chap who built them at the Lakeland Show near Penrith who I got on very well with. Really pleased I've been able to give some of them a new home.

Bought these mostly custom made one off conversions out of a collection I knew well that G & M recently advertised for sale. Absolutely chuffed to bits with them all.

Thanks ever so much John. Roy built quite a few models with Hiniker cabs over the years including Oliver, Minneapolis Moline and John Deere. Love the conversions he built over the past twenty years, pleased i've been able to give just over twenty of them new homes in my collection recently.
Here's a couple of lovely Case conversions of his I now own.
