Johny mf Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Well this model is standing quit some time here on the shelf to get further with. But never got around to post the build of it. This is going to be a MF 3650 or MF 3655. The chassis and wheels are from the Claas Ares from UH (the old version) The cab/platform is from the MF 3080 from UH. And the bonnet is the ROS MF 3050 that i have extended at the end and at the front bot om to get the right measurements. So here are some photo's Now i only need to sort out if i take a fronthitch or make the frontweight higher on the chassis. Also need to make a new frontgril and do some work on the chassis. Hope you like her so far? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I can find out for ya! I have a feeling it is sold to be honest. Lovely looking machine though, stands really proud. Much like I reckon Johnny's model will look when it is done. Will it be on your table at Zwolle, Johnny boy? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johny mf Posted August 16, 2011 Author Share Posted August 16, 2011 Have done a small job on this one today. I cut of the frontweight and i put the PMA fronthitch together that i bought for this model. And i hang it on the chasis of the 3650/3655 (not glued it yet because i need to do some more work on the chasis) Here the result so far: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johny mf Posted August 16, 2011 Author Share Posted August 16, 2011 Didnt sort that out yet mate. But i have enough time to think that trough Stil sitting at home with my kidney stone´s :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johny mf Posted August 20, 2011 Author Share Posted August 20, 2011 Sorted the gril out yesterday evening. I tryed first the frontgril of the 3080 but that where much to small for the ROS bonnet. So i made one my self on my milling machine (hand operated not CNC) First i made the the nose cone (grey part of the bonnet) and then i made a plate that fits in there and milled the groove´s and the headlights in it. Also i painted the chasis yesterday and the rims! Photo wil be folowed later on today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
