4C Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 At the risk of not upsetting a certain somebody, he thought that I ought to post a picture of this. Not wanting to hi-jack the brilliant conversion that Tris did, but wanting to show my take on it. As some will know it is a rather time consuming conversion (or at least the first one is!). Just waiting/finding the time to make a STGO board for the front and needs alittle touching up. Oh and one of them cheap transits as escort vehicle for good measure.

sparrow legs Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 looks ok i guess are them vans in scale? ive one on order guess you have had alot of spare time to make that T cab and paint jobs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4C Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 Look ok I Guess?? Yes there is a post on here comparing them with the Britains Transit and they aren't bad! I wish that I did have alot of spare time, its taken weeks on and off, as and when I had the time. I must admit the Transit was stripped and painted in a quick turnaround. Took some gears out of the windy box thing while I was on aswell so that it free wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 This could turn into a competition with Mark 4055power doing one aswell Your take on it is great, Mark. Really nicely done and hard to tell the two cabs apart. The paintjob, double drive and detailing is great. I still have things to finish on mine even now. Whether I get to it again in the near future or not remains to be seen. Can we have some tractor unit only photos? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4C Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 This could turn into a competition with Mark 4055power doing one aswell I don't think that that is very likely, each to their own.

What tractor units would you like pictures of?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4C Posted July 15, 2009 Author Share Posted July 15, 2009 Thankyou for the kind words. Wondering what to do with the conversion left overs, I made this. I think that it may reappear as a rigid later on in life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 thats a good looking unit you have there , certainly spent some time on it & it's turned out really well, will look great up against tris' at the next spalding show as for the R day cab , hows about an 8 wheel bulk blower ? considering you've turned out some pretty good tippers it wouldn't take that much more work to re work it . if you need pics i can get them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However it will stay as it is for now, until I get time to have a re-chop. Got a few ideas to mulling round for this or I may do another one.

4C Posted January 3, 2010 Author Share Posted January 3, 2010 Well some of you more eagle eyed people may have noticed or not (was in the pictures from Startrac), I have added another T cab to my ever growing fleet, but sporting a lower roof. Anyway here we are, first pic 'Up for a photo' and second pic with big brother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
