If I get chance tomorrow i'll see if I can find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't even realise there was a real half track landy, love the 6x6 though. Not seen the Seroes 1 no, is it further back in the topic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stabliofarmer Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 That dissasembeled one is a very interesting piece and the fire engine would have been a nice one to see enter full production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watermill Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 I guess over the years there must be so many prototypes, id love to see more of them, tractors and implements would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super6 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I have a couple of Sample models, as marked. They are not farm models though, being the Police Helicopter and a Road Series Unimog. The helicopter is markedly different to the production version where as the Unimog looks to be near enough a production model. I will try and post pictures in a new thread. What can you tell us about the framed Land Rover? Is it old/new(ish)? Where did it come from (if you don't mind my asking) auction, dealer, Britains or employee? Love the Land Rover colour variations, shame they didn't do a few of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan_coe2012 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Nice landy's. The framed one is a very very nice piece to have in your collection like that a lot. That seed drill is great buy too want to make one of those at some point! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Jordan, the frame is certainly different. I've got a coupe of convo MF30's into 6m, this one is the best though, it would be a good models for a good detailed mainstream manufacturer to make.

All I know about the framed landy is that it was done in 1967, I managed to get it though an ex employee's relative. One day i'll dig out all the prototype Landys and put them up on here.

Got my JD numbers muddled up there - the 5820 is a map model, thought it was a reference to a forager I put up a few posts back. Cant keep up with all the numbers these days!
