Pete Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Was the cab scratch built?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerrabbit Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 The cab is part of the casting, bonnet, mudguards, cab and cab base are one casting, the model is based on the Corgi 1412. These are plentiful and make a good conversion base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stabliofarmer Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Off topic I know (sorry) but how close to 1/32 are the Corgi Browns ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerrabbit Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 General consensus is that they are roughly 1:48, some say 1:50 but depends on what books you read. Corgi never really admitted to an actual scale until the larger scale vehicles and lorries started being produced from the very late 1960's, cars and vans were around 1:35 and the lorries and busses were 1:50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corgi never really admitted to an actual scale until the larger scale vehicles and lorries started being produced from the very late 1960's, cars and vans were around 1:35 and the lorries and busses were 1:50 In my opinion, the Corgi David brown is much bigger than 1/50 scale.

freds conversions Posted November 18, 2013 Author Share Posted November 18, 2013 Looks well Fred, well worth the time and effort that has gone into it thanks jc i thimk corgi 1412 is not far of being 1/32 as the scaledown 990 kit and the 1412 cab looks to be merged well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IH885XLMAN Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 well there is one honest way to finding the correct scale for te corgi would be to measurete wheel base and scale it up to the 1/1 real tractor I mean that's got to give the scale of the corgi DB ten aint it ??
