Farmer Giles Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Have wanted to do something with this Britains model for a long time, just never had the time so started this weekend. Some major changes made but alot more to be done. Will post pictures as I go along. Quite an easy conversion for anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Palmer Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 is it just a case of putting on a tw/5610,floorpan and cab or more involved? was there a lot of cutting for the floopan to fit?,looks very smart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 the floorpan does require a bit of work paul, mostly where it sits over the britains chassis, to get it lower to the wheels, i have done 3 so far ones in the shed in base form if you want a few pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farmer Giles Posted November 22, 2010 Author Share Posted November 22, 2010 My Ford 7600 is getting more like the real tractor all the time. As you can see from the pictures I have taken off the front weight, re-formed the front section and resprayed. Other detail to be finished includes cab lights, rear lights and spools, and also interior detail. Will post more pictures as the model progresses.

james f Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Lovely job there. The one in the photo behind is almost a carbon copy of the one at home; no dual power, short air cleaner, big door mirror bracket, original paintwork... Can I suggest you do something with the cab where it meets the bonnet at the bottom of the windscreen? If it was tidied up and made to go straight across it would really look the part Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
