roberthenning Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Heres a few pictures of a Valtra N conversion i have done. Started it at the beginning of the year and just got the loader finisher there yesterday. Still need to get a set of wheel weights made up to suit it, and it'll be pretty much complete.

roberthenning Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 The self levels were just made out of plastistruct and painted silver, still not entirely happy with them. And last but not least a picture of the real machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPR Models Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Nice,do you have any pictures of the building or can you tell us what you have done so far mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roberthenning Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 Thanks. Sorry no pictures of the build, ill try look out one of when its just the normal loader. Its a Valtra C, with a Valtra T cab on it, and painted the right colour. Rear tyres were changed to britains ones. I took all the hoses off loader as they are hidden within the frame of the real one and then it was re-painted matt grey and self levelers were made form plastistruct and paint silver and finished off with valtra badges. I also added a white haired man complete with wellingtons, and a flouresent yellow jackect, as dad usually drives it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jdeere6910 Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Looks good those little touches really make the difference like the wheels and the driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mickelcarroll Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Just wondering how you managed to get the cab off? I want to put a driver in myself but I'm not sure how the cab comes off. Is it just a case of taking off the wheels and cutting the melted plastic of the cab coming through the mud guards? Or is there a tab under the bonnet as well? Looks well too by the way!

Its about 7 years or more since i did this conversion so can't remember, i think theres a screw under the body possibly but can't remember. The actual real tractor burnt to the ground this summer sadly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
