That would be a challenge David....... although 16th 4wd axles are in short supply....... I have something in mind but i'm consulting my technical man to see if the parts are useable ;)  ;)

Thanks Sean :) , I'm toying with the idea of trying to refit the doors to the 7000. i've a couple of hinge ideas that might work........ just got to get them off the drawing board and into a model ::)  ;)

It's been a while since I've updated the thread, but there has only been a small investment in the collection this summer :- ,  the 2 biggest models were the 3rd and 4th Generation 1455xl's by UH along with a UH New performance Super major (to be kept as UH built it) and a 16th scale trip Buckrake of Ciaran of perfect-32....... A few other UH's been bought in for other projects as time allows but not part of the collection yet ;)............  unlike the County 974 that now has a special place in the collection 8)

 

Photo update to follow shortly ;)

Long time since an update!! Still better late than never and must get round to adding the photo's :laugh:  :laugh:

 

A couple of tractors from the collection have now been moved on to a new owner in Cumbria.... The big booted Fordson super Major, and Valley Timber Services's  green County super 4 with winch and Power major and sawbench have gone to join a pair of my cabbed Ford 5000 builds in a almost complete collection of UH 16th scale Ford and Fordson models owned by a big "Blue power fan" David (non-member as yet) who is half tempted to display them at the 2015 Annandale model show :)

 

Still a few models in the pipeline after various discussions with Andy at Classic... ;) Although no new purchases but one or two builds in mind if I can track down the required donor tractors at the right price ;)
