Fenside MF Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Hi all,just finished my uh based 7499 conversion,this one is for myself but would build more to order,so if anyone is after one,pm me for a price and can also decal it as a 7497. Just to explain roughly what I have done,new wider wheels and tyres,front wheels are partly based on the orginal uh rims so all four wheels spin freely as good as the orginals Widened and flared out the rear mudguards and resprayed mf 50th red,driver added to cab,new wider front mudguards gps system on roof widened rear arches modified front rims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluegreen Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 The forthcoming MF7600 tractors are even better looking than the 7400s so a set of those 7499 wheels and tyres transfered to the new MF7624 will really have the tractor looking the mutts nuts. Are you planning for that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke (DeWitt) Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Wow, this is a nice model. Great work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
