PDC Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share Posted July 4, 2009 I was just geeting the bonnet ready to send for casting when I tried it on the 5455 chassis with a ROS cab and mudguards I know the chassis needs work to remove the steps and fuel tanks but would this pass as a 3070 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 bonnet and grills wrong for the 3000 series mate sadly, i have the ross one with few extra mm's added for the 3000's along with other work, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 to be honest paul i think you'd be onto a stonking idea getting those parts cast, apart from wrong bonnet & grillon the 3070 above is the wheels are too big for a 3070 they's be more suited to 6cyl 3080 models upwards maybe you could cast the tims tractor wheels as well think it's great when you show us pre product models, really good to see them progress from idea to finish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PDC Posted July 25, 2009 Author Share Posted July 25, 2009 I got the first resin bonnet kit today....it's come out really well :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 looks well paul , , can see there's a fair bit of detail from the cast & have to say , i'm surprised that the short wheel base & bigger wheels have suited the body parts you have fitted & has ended up looking a well balanced tractor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathan Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 that looks stunning , the cast came out well look forward to the end product Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Interested Spectator Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Paul, Just looked at this again. Would a version with a slightly longer bonnet, sufficent to fit a Britains MF 6290, give a nice simple 8100 series conversion ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 What Marcus said really, Paul. That has come out very very well. I guess I better hope to drive a 6150 somewhen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 nowt wrong with that mr c, did you cast the bonnet and front grill in one peice or two mate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDC Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 nowt wrong with that mr c, did you cast the bonnet and front grill in one peice or two mate? No mate seperate bonnet,grill,grill surround,air cleaner and exhaust just need to find the right size O ring to go between the bonnet and grill ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
