1972farming Posted January 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 better if it was massey I have done the odd conversion on Masseys in the past but there seem to more Britains Fords to start off with so they seem to be the obvious choice .

Udimore Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 I'm in love, i'll take one now please, what are those back wheels off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1972farming Posted January 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 Yes I know what you mean . I've got a few more old 6600 chassis castings lying around so its going to be a few more conversions on them when time allows . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1972farming Posted January 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 I'm in love, i'll take one now please, what are those back wheels off? Well I wish I could tell you .If I remember corrctly I bought them off Brian Holmes at Tractor World a couple of years ago .They were white metal and very nice indeed .Because I have been busy over the last year I haven't been out and about to see what other wheels are on offer .I could contact Nigel and buy some scaledown wheels ,they are very nice .
