PDC Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I got some MB Trac books for Christmas which gave me inspiration to have a go at another forestry version of the Siku MB Trac I used a Cranab crane from a Joal Valmet fowarder and cut away all the mudguards etc as per the tractors in my books All the cab protection is scratchbuilt from plastistrut and evergreen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archbarch Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 that looks great !!!!! I think if i was to do a conversion it would be along the forestry theme. There is a company still producing a MB Trac base unit for forestry use, its not Doppstadt!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
